Who are you to decide that there is no value in it? People are clicking, reading, and engaging. People obviously enjoy doing it. Who are you to tell them that what they're doing is wrong?

It's so interesting watching Rich talk. He has such a breadth and depth of knowledge and you can tell that he really took his time when designing the language.

I've noticed that using argparse makes my scripts start very slow, especially if you expose a large number of option. I have a script that I wrote for work that has quite a variable number of available options and it can sometimes take

I feel like there should be a "No True LISP" fallacy in CS... It expresses pretty much all of the core principals of a LISP. If it looks like a LISP, thinks like a LISP, behaves like a LISP; then do you really gain anything by try
