Not what I’m saying. Just saying if I need speed, I’d use a naturally faster language.

Numpy is good for that. But, I gravitate toward naturally faster langs where I don’t need to import a library for speed. I use Python for simple, dumb scripts.

Sometimes, I just rewrite my code until it is good enough. Other times, I leave it to my memory, so I can figure it out later. And others, I’m just not happy about it, like the times I did bigbin2dec and it would only work well with something like thread-ripper.

I use it for scripting too. I don’t need Python as much as before nowaday.

Uh, that would be infuriating to see. (Yes, I can see tabs in KDE Kate)

What if you use tabs for indentations and space for alignment?

What if you prefer a DSL? I use G’MIC for image processing tasks.

I use states, but no classes. G’MIC is my main language. I do appreciate the functional way of thinking after writing in it for so long. States are just variables that defines the mode of something, right?

I dislike Python as well, but it has it place. I only use it for quick code tests before doing it in other languages.

I’m just glad I have other options than just Python. Am not afraid of writing my solutions either. I rarely use Python these day.
