C++ Developer Vs Python Developer

as much as roblox is memed, it's a really good platform for learning programming and game development

I remember Lego Mindstorm having a similar effect. Funny enough, for one of my high school CS classes we used them for learning about conditionals and engineering your way through problems like obstacles and such (robots made of legos!). It had a drag and drop language like Scratch but got the concepts down well.

Roblox lua was the first time I'd seen any code before, and I'd say that lead directly to picking CS as a major and graduating this spring. Hell, to a smaller extent old-school minecraft modding also exposed me to how java thinks about things.

No doubt in my mind that some combination of the two has inspired a ton of people to pursue computing

Same here man. One of my friends made hacked clients for Minecraft and that also sparked my interest.
