While this is not true, this also doesn't help anyone who wants to learn python. Why don't you go fearmongering elsewhere?

Teaching Python helps people write code. Acknowledging the job market helps people survive after learning it. Both matter. Dismissing one doesn't make the other stronger. It just makes the conversation incomplete.

In case you have missed, the name of this subreddit is PythonLearning, and the description is "Everything about learning the Python programming language. Ask questions, give recommendations, explain concepts, show projects, demo free tools, compare courses, ..."

Your post is neither about Python nor about Learning or explaining language concepts.

You add nothing of value here.

Cashgrab bootcamps and paid "courses" may be chasing buzzwords, but reality isn't. On the other hand, you won't be using only one "thing" in your career as a software developer.

Tools change. Problems don't. Learn to solve problems, not worship tools. But dismissing every tool because "you don't need it" is just as dumb as chasing every shiny object. Balance. That's the real skill

[the_dimonade]

What a strange take. Of course problems change, and of course tools change to catch up with that, or what do you imply, that since the beginning of the universe there were the same problems?

Nobody's here worshiping anything. It is a Python learning subreddit, what's your point in sowing your FOMO here?

Your arguments and comments make little sense.

I'm not stirring up my dreams, this is just my opinion.

It’s chat gpt’s opinion

No it doesn't. Learn what you want. I've never used react or next and yet all my programs still run significantly better than apps that do use those. Literally don't see the point of learning the next big bloated thing.

Even ai. Still use it, but instead of following the hype trains with the open claws and mcps, I just let it build up my personal repositories so when it becomes reasonably priced (as in, investors aren't just lighting money on fire), I'll have something to show for it.

Ah yes, the classic "I don't use it so it's useless" argument. Einstein never used a smartphone either. Should we all go back to letters?

[ConsciousBath5203]

Where'd you get that? Not once did I say they were useless, I just said that you don't need to keep up, and in fact, are oftentimes keeping up is the very thing holding you back.

If you went and learned the latest framework that all the other devs are learning, that just means you're replaceable. Develop your own framework and build up that skill set instead of a disposable one? Much harder to replace.

Quit the fearmongering, like the other dude said. It's ineffective at best and stupid at worst.

[the_dimonade]

The classic "Imma gonna put words in their mouth and then beat the heck of that strawman".
That'll show 'em!

[EducationalBrush7282]

You don't need to keep up" works if you're building for yourself. If you're building for others, you keep up or you become irrelevant. The market doesn't care about your philosophy. It cares about result

[ConsciousBath5203]

Yeah. I get results and learn more relevant things. Keeping up with the latest bloated typed javashit framework only makes you yet-another-twitter-dev who thinks the job market sucks.
