1 in 5 rants in the past week have been about Python bashing. Did I miss some sort of cataclysm or something?

Nah it's just that bashing JS for failing to understand how floating point math even works has become a bit old.

Yet, Python maintains its position as the fastest growing programming language, even outshining Java this year.

Taking bets for next week, either PHP or Java.

@C0D4 PHP 😂

@BarakaShuzuko it's a frequent flyer around here, usually a safe bet 😅

You’ve put some thought into this 🤣

I'm curious. Have any of the Python-bashers recommended better languages or said anything like "I wish Python was more like X" in their rants? I've been looking for a new language to learn recently but I keep coming back to Python.

@EmberQuill can you show me a time I bashed on python?

I come from a php background, I rarely bash* on a language... and I use a few.

*excluding nodeJs, because that's just wrong and waiting for some major package to be pulled down and watch them internet burn again, but JS its self I have no issue with.

@C0D4 I never said anything about you bashing Python though...

Just a way to demonstrate that you're special.

@EmberQuill if you want a recommendation I’d personally recommend GoLang if you want something new
