Don't forget to mention the poor (and complicated) editor support for "these custom HTML templating languages". JSX is very well supported in most editors.

I never got comfortable with debuggers for the work that I do. Thus I rely heavily on "print debugging". There are tools such as "icecream" [0] (in Python), that improve print-debugging ergonomics a lot. I wish every lan

I like this a lot! What a great evolution of Postgresl/SQL. I also love what you do for the Python/asyncio ecosystem. Congratulations on the release! Their is one point I'd like to address, though. It's still a real pain

There are linters for these kinds of things that work with most editors. E.g. VSCode with pylint marks the method immediately, if you forget `self` or `cls`.

Python has type annotations since 3.5 and you can get static type checking via mypy. This is a type system that works quite well IMHO and eleminates most of the issues you mentioned.

Now that we have type hints and statically typing in Python, I hope to see an open source Python compiler, that improves performance and produces single file binaries.

In addition to this. About Python and typing, have you tried mypy (statically typed Python)? I find the typing story quite decent since Python 3.6. I use it on every project that goes above ~1000 LOC. http://mypy-lang.org/

I'm a Python guy too, and what I like about Python is that I can choose between using it dynamically typed or statically typed. When I start a new script/app, I usually start without type annotations and as soon as the data-model
