[A Cueball-like friend is talking to Cueball, who is floating in the sky.]
Friend: You’re flying! How?
Cueball: Python!
Cueball: I learned it last night! Everything is so simple!
Cueball: Hello world is just print “Hello, World!”
Friend: I dunno… Dynamic typing? Whitespace?
Cueball: Come join us! Programming is fun again! It’s a whole new world up here!
Friend: But how are you flying?
Cueball: I just typed ‘import antigravity’
Friend: That’s it?
Cueball: …I also sampled everything in the medicine cabinet for comparison.
Cueball: But I think this is the python.
Wouldn’t IDE ensure these things are looked after?
Yes, but people feel threatened by good programming languages instead of just learning them.
There aren’t good languages and bad languages, there are better tools for a particular job and worse.
