On: Python programming is drowning in red tape

[BalinKing]

strong types != ugly syntax (viz. Haskell)

[raverbashing → BalinKing]

Agreed but that's not necessarily the issue here

(Though yeah templates in C++ turn the ugliness to 11)

Not to mention Python is "strongly-typed". But it doesn't require variables to have a pre-determined type and doesn't do compile time type checks by itself.
