I don't want to go too heavy on the negatives, but what's nuts is Python going for trust-the-programmer style multithreading. The risk is that extension modules could cause a lot of crashes.

Simple rule to keep in mind that even math savvy people seem to forget about is that: sqrt(x²) = |x| with bars for absolute value. For a programmer, it's clear that we have lost the sign information but not the magnitude. Simple. Makes

That is a very simplified take. Congress has been locking up for the past decades and is now unable to do useful regulation for the people. Much of it is due to how the funding of candidates works and the feedback loop effect it had on the
