Python Language Debate

Any specifics? I may be using Python for so long that I got used to its warts. Some outside perspective could be useful.

Can somebody who disliked Python please tell me their reasons for doing so?

Why should I make myself suffer with a less expressive language than Python?

Maybe the author is more comfortable with Python than the alternatives.

Python is notorious for this and has been for years. I'm afraid you just have to accept it as the price for an easy syntax and access to lots of nice libraries.

This is great, I'm going to switch to this from black. Being used to working in other languages I feel like I'm swimming in molasses when using Python.It's funny that all good things for Python are not written in Python. Says a lot about the language.

Yeah, Python is my Blub. I know I should learn stuff like Haskell and Clojure, but I just haven't come across any cases where it's more than a minor inconvenience to make Python do what I need.

Python has been my go-to for prototyping since 2003. Maybe I’ve just adjusted to its quirks, but I keep returning to it despite picking up another dozen languages since. I’ve encountered other people who hate it, but never understood why; what issues are you experiencing?

I'd like to think Python has more going for it than being a bad Perl

I don’t know why, but my brain refuse to work natively with Python. I wrote countless projects in more than 10 years of professional experience, from small scripts to advanced ML, libraries are fantastic, and I still fight the language.In comparison with Ruby, even after years I can write complex expressions and get standard library names just by guessing and be right. In Python it’s like my brain is wired at the opposite of every convention. Even JavaScript feels more natural.I have 0 joy
