I mean… yes those are true? lol.

It’s great for getting a feel for how things are done, imo.

But yes a crutch you should gradually stop relying on.

Surely an unpopular opinion lol.

Python is a great first language.

:q!

People need programmers to make boring things. Often boring things make more money than programming stuff for science.

We need both. Programming is a tool.

Just the parts with leaders that hate freedom.

You can still use either.

Python has never been a big language for app development… no idea why you would call it old school.

To answer op, Swift for iOS; Kotlin on Android.

In the long run, I wonder if rust will spawn a family of new memory-safe languages.

Great for prototyping and quick scripts.

That and such rich set of libraries for anything you want.

I use it daily, with ultisnips, to write reports at work!

Go through the book Automate The Boring Things (Python)

Then AFTER figure out your own projects.

You can definitely learn to program without being great at math. Obviously, depends on what kind of programming.

If you want a computer science degree though? You’ll need the math.

Such a dumb comparison for the headline …

And need the extra CHMOD, JAMES CHMOD

The frameworks and tooling stacks are just even higher level abstractions.

Why would it get better? Higher level programming is faster and saves companies money… they’re not going back to super efficient assembly or something to make xyz from scratch.

Article has a bit of an “old man yelling at clouds” sort of vibe.

I see no problem

😡

The first isn’t ambiguous at all; the second is hella ambiguous.
