Damn, everything new really is old again. Everyone said the same thing about Java. Yet it still works and gets the job done. Go does as well. I'd rather poke my eyes out with a nail than use Python.
Glad I'm not the only one. Every time I'm forced to use Python I cringe. What version disaster and I'm going to run into today? The 2->3 transition happened a long time ago at this point and I still run into lingering effects. Also, for short 'script' like things Python doesn't feel any quicker or easier to write. Go is my Goto (hehe) for short scripts.
And while I'm ranting, I'll also say that modern/latest version Java is also really nice.
Interesting. I read about this a lot and I feel like it's a gimmick at this point. What lingering effects of the Py2->Py3 transition do you run into?
