I keep jumping between C++, Python and Java for various projects, and really, they are different worlds.

In C++ you think hard about your problem, create strong abstractions that translate into fast execution. That's a highly satisfying engineering job.

In Python you do happy exploratory programming. Changing data structures on the fly, hacking your way through unexpected problem by doing crass things like adding members to a class at runtime.

You can do exploratory programming in C++ but that requires a lot of additional work to experience a fraction of that freedom. And you can do solid engineering in python but that requires as well a lot of additional work.

Different tools for different things. Python is the off-road bike you take for a bit of fun in the forest. C++ is the family car you take to do the week's grocery.
