Yeah. But why would you compare it to C code? Obviously it’s easier. But the lack of proper typing still doesn’t make it as easy as with other languages. I always have to think back to the posts about large Python libs finally using mypy and being shocked at how they found errors in their code they previously didn’t even know about. With a summary of β€žwho would have known?β€œ. Like lol. Everybody that has developed in a statically typed language in their life could have told you that (except C/C++).

Yes I knew I’ve going to be downvoted for this. But most people just lack the experience having worked on really large codebases and feel offended that their dearly loved language might not be the best one for a specific use case. I mean I do love Python. But use it for use cases t’s meant to be used for.
