i love things being pythonic

i love that the aesthetic of the code matters

i love that “clever” is not a goal in python

just ship the entire interpreter with your application! :buddy:

don't forget all the packages as well. This is why docker is popular you get to vendor everything and not feel dumb

My friend is an eloquent speaker.

i’m less a programmer and more an engineer/architect who dives into technologies just far enough to accomplish my overarching objective so python is cool and good for me to shittly write those things for the one-off tasks i need when my equally lovely bash skills can’t do it.

it’s good op

yeah idk what the point of adding that poo poo to python is. if you find yourself wanting that, it is a sign that you need to switch to a statically typed language yesterday.

you don't need mypy to benefit from type hints. the only good python ide, pycharm, has support for them built in

i mean sure your coworkers are probably editing python in notepad but you don't have to share their mistakes ... right?

Hammerite posted:

pycharm uses them to provide actual non-terrible completion and stuff. they're a hell of a lot better than using python without them

also sometimes you wind up maintaining an existing python codebase that you can't realistically just throw away, and type hints let you gradually make this situation slightly less horrible to be in, while you stack enough figgies to support your new identity in belize

it's the least bad of the plangs, tho. sometimes you gotta plang and then python is a sensible choice. don't plang unless you have to tho. i have never regretted writing anything in java, but i have often regretted writing things in python

didnt python at some point get promoted from plang to hipste?
