python i think is still good prototyping. I can do numerical work, visualisations, animations, game dev, web dev, etc. for me python is just the biggest collection of tools while not being the best at anything. which is an ok trade off a l

even as a static model, it is not a low pass filter. in fact, in the static case, a kalman filter is exactly the same as the recursive least squares estimator, which is provably the optimal unbiased estimator
