  • Any other Pythonistas out there in BBS-space? :)

    I'm unapologetic about Python being my favorite programming language.

    I'm not married to it, I'm happy to write Ruby or Bash or whatever I need to get the job done, but Python makes me *happy* unlike any other modern programming language I've found.

    It actually reminds me a lot sometimes of encountering Atari LOGO back in the day. While the world was counting jiffies and writing 6502 ML to move sprites around, I was delighted to find a language where the code mirrored the way I think.

    If you don't code in Python, what programming language makes you happy?

    I somewhat felt that way about C++ for quite a while - Perhaps because it was one of the first programming languages I had learned (aside from BASIC before that).

    I haven't used Python a whole lot, except for a couple projects (test automation and a web-based project using Flask with a Python back-end). Over my career, much of my work actually called for C++, but for the past few years or so, many of the projects I've worked on have used C#. I've also worked on a few Android development projects (using Kotlin and Java).

    I also develop & maintain some Synchronet mods in JavaScript.
