Janko in a Jar

So, To finish this one off. I wrote this because I needed some venting for seeing tons of posts about python on reddit (for few days or a week they were all over it) and because I am seeing some smart shit about python all the time from various people that didn’t-really-use-it but saw it a little and heard that it’s ultra nice.

Yes, python is nice, but it’s just a language like any other and there is a bunch of other languages that are “nice” too!

I think python is now just the most mainstream of these (I don’t know how to call them) higher level dynamic scripting languages. And those people who previously didn’t know it even exists or diminished anything dynamic while coding in old behemoths of that era (C++, Delphi or Java) are now falling on their asses because “python is so nice, productive and great!!”.

Also ruby was very “in” for a year or two and now that it sort of felt back to reality a lot of folks found rescue in it’s older cousin python.
