Does anyone want to make the argument YC does more good than harm? I'd be surprised if that was a tenable position.

Those are non-mainstream languages, I think the point stands. You would need to prove the case for Scala or Kotlin tbh, Scala is hideously complex and Kotlin like Python suffers from becoming too bloated, accumulating features and syntax th

I don't know a better open source language than Python. Java and C# are both better (platforms) but they come with that obvious corporate catch.

This seems to suggest once the bubble pops, it will take Python down with it. The next AI winter will definitely replace Lisp with Python.

I'm finding it frustrating. I want to block hackernews but a lot of good discussion in searches for tech end up here. So i'm not sure how to square that. I should probably just block it and then use an LLM to ask 'what would

Before this I hated code rabbit, sick of hearing them on podcast ads.

> It may also be "good enough," and maybe there are more language users than there are language researchers. I think you are right. Python steering council seems to consist people who are closer to users than capable language d

It's funny because 3 dropped in 2008, the same year Slava was demonstrating Factor in google tech talks which was a contemporary language to python3 that completely blew Python out of the water. https://youtu.be/f_0QlhY

Ok, can someone explain this to someone with double digit iq? Is it validating the adapter idea or something else?

Of course you can do this with Typescript but what about Python if you're stuck using it for $dayjob. Any tips?

How tragic it is that someone other than Simon Willison is being harassed by AI agents.

SQL, Postgres, Pandas, Polars, Airflow, Duckdb, and whatever else shiny object along the way which distracts me from actually doing something productive towards my goals.

Perl had charm, it was respected by hackers for the joy it brought people who 'got' it. It still remains a beautiful language that I regret not learning due to having a superior taste. Python had none of it. I still don't und

My gut feeling is that it succeeded due to escaping scrutiny. I had heard enough critiques of the language from CL folks but the rest of the world was just happy to get a nicer Perl that could be used to glue together C code into useful app

Perl had the batteries and it had CPAN. Python borrowed the best bits of Perl and enjoyed a reputation which overlooked its many flaws. If it had been scrutinized as much as Perl, we'd have realized it was just as bad but in different

My read is htmx is now evolving towards datastar. It tells me datastar will become irrelevant soon as htmx eats its babies.
