I probably shouldn&#x27;t bother replying to this. But I am curious about what leads a person to paint with such broad strokes.<p>I&#x27;ve intentionally chosen a job that is mostly Python. Because while I am aware that it has some flaws or trade offs or whatever you want to call them, it&#x27;s a language that -- first and foremost -- allows me to write <i>programs that work.</i><p>The fact that I find the language aesthetically pleasing is a bonus. When I run into situations where Python isn&#x27;t good enough, then I drop down into C and do things there.<p>I&#x27;m new enough at being a developer that I&#x27;m willing to understand that there are things I may be missing out on coming from a self-taught background that started with SQL and then moved to C# and eventually Python, and then sometimes C when needed.<p>I&#x27;m also open to the idea that a person&#x27;s language of choice indicates something about their personality characteristics in the same way that you can guess a little about a person based on which instrument they play in an orchestra or a band.<p>But is there really anything you can say about what I&#x27;m reading in your comment as &#x27;rigor&#x27; based on that?
