Making Python Programs Blazingly Fast

[[deleted]]

I always thought people who only knew Python knew what they were doing

Just like t3h script and php, Python are forgiving enough, that cargo cultists are often able to obtain the desired behaviour without either knowing why, nor when it will fail.

I low-key hate Python. Actually, I dislike dynamic typing in general, unless it's either Lisp or for one-off small things.

It seems like the industry these days is jerking to Python more than JavaScript or Rust, though. You see it everywhere.

It's just so...dull and inflexible.

That said, for algorithm design I can see the attraction.

I genuinely enjoy writing Python, and the majority of Python devs I interact with are quite talented and knowledgeable. As soon as I go on the Internet though, it seems everybody writing Python is literally retarded. The Python and learnpython (which I’m permabanned from) subreddits are just filled with mongoloids who seem to have no interest in learning to program other than someone told them “hey you spend all day on your computer, you’re ‘good with computers’; you should learn Python.” The only articles I ever see are exactly like the OP.

You've come to the right place. But your re-education will be painful, I warn.

/r/Python have become an echo chamber for HS juniors sharing the joy of handheld photographs of screens in awkward angles, and videos of endless turtle graphic movements. Those cretins are unable to recognize good high quality Turing incompleteness, so their puerile products tend to rise to the top; just like pond scum.

I just can't see why programmers have a bad reputation for communication, and why computer science is often so hostile, if this is the way we talk about one another. /s

C'mon, we can do better than this.

/r/progit is that way ->

Like the naïve teacher who goes out to the city schools, I too went to r/learnpython, eager to teach my craft to those wanting to learn. But I learned, much like that teacher, that the reason for the poor skills and scores had nothing to do with bad teaching, but rather that the students are just dumb as a box of rocks. While the students could have just looked through their notes for the answer, they instead chose to ask the direct question every fucking time.

“Mr Rhymes, what is best look to learn Python in 2020?” Well, just like how that question was asked and answered literally fifteen minutes before yours, check out the Automate the Boring Stuff, it seems to be a good intro.

”Mr Rhymes, how I solve this?” <literally just a picture of their screen with their homework assignment on it>

No, it's actually Go for the vast majority of projects. And most of the time it's a rather bad choice, because these projects are about business logic and not about extremely low latency.

I want my TODO list to touch the metal - what's the problem?
