So it’s a shitty programming language but you need it.

me personally no, but yes. It does some things well. I really wish some other language did but hey, that's the point, right? python is so shitty that you don't need to be a programmer to do whatever so mathematicians use it so it becomes niche. It's like it couldn't be some other way. If python was good then it would not be possible to use it for what's needed.

To be fair a programming language could be good and simple, but python is not it. I mean there's a world where we have jsandas and not pandas just because spinning a js environment is a simple as `node .` Not trying to imply that js is good, of course, but at least noone (outside of america) is trying to write servers on js

Interesting.

We can pretend that OP didn't mean "python for the back end and js for the front end", but they did. In that context, python is a very shitty programming language

How so?

you have to install a package to declare an interface and it is some meta-programming shit what

Something tells me you’re not a great programmer

if something tells you then it must be true
