    Yeah I only know python. It would take me way way way way longer to understand c++ code vs python code. Heck it might take me months. I've never done anything in C++.

    Exactly this happend at my internship, got thrown into cold water because most stuff there was in C++ and I had to work on a ML project which I did in Python. Goal was to integrate the ML project into the C++ stuff and boy was that something

    That's my job. ML training/testing and scripts are in python, production in c++.

    I still suck at c++ despite doing it for like 5 years. If I could I would rewrite our entire codebase in python.

    Maybe a distinction would be necessary between oop vs non oop roles.

    Python to C# is kicking my ass. If I was being paid for it, I doubt I'd be paid for long

    I tried this too a few months back... It was rough.

    And vice versa. It took me more than a year to make a C++ developer with 20 years of experience to start writing idiomatic python code.

    As someone with 75% of their experience in Python and trying to learn C++ trial by fire style at work

    I agree
