On: Why Python Is Terrible

[objektif]

I have developed insanely complicated software with Python that works pretty well.

If you expect to find Java or C in Python you are looking at the wrong place.

And now, of course, it's deprecated because you wrote it in a version of Python that's no longer in support or used a library that hasn't been (or maybe won't be) ported to 3.11.

I did 2 to 3 migrations. It was fine. I would rather deal with these types of issues once in a while than work everyday with Java.

Yeah. I did 90kloc of python porting. Twice. Never working for a company that allows developers to use python again.

I'm glad you were able to port your scripts, but python is absolutely not appropriate for mission critical software.
