Development environment is a mess, but given its popularity, it’s not difficult to find an up to date tutorial. Then it is the easiest I think, you will be able to try programming basics and get a minimum viable product (small web app, small analytics…) easlier than with any other language.

I try to contribute to things getting better, sometimes through polite rational skepticism.
Disagreeing with your comment ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.
Let’s discuss to refine the arguments that make things better sustainably.
Always happy to question our beliefs.

Some people think that because Python is the easiest language to learn, it’s going to be easy to learn programming with Python. But learning programming is still very hard, so many abstract concepts to grasp. Python just makes it a tiny less hard, almost insignificantly now that we can use an LLM to learn the syntax faster than than ever.
Good point
It seems Netflix is able to detect that spoofing, and sends this error when trying to play videos, “Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later.”. I had to disable my add-ons one by one to identify that it was User Agent Switcher causing it.
Eating your foot’s dry skin in public should help restore your balance.

I’m glad that there’s no micro transactions nor loot boxes.

How do you agree on a meeting time with a group of people who all live in different places of your country?
That’s a good idea! Instead of discrete timezones, let’s have continuous timezones!
Are you one of those rare developers who spend most of their day actually coding?
Absolutely insane how much quicker it is too do stuff with vim motions than ctrl-shift-arrows and the like
Those tasks are a very small part of work time, so most people don’t feel the need to optimize it.
A lot of straw man arguments. Overall, I think we agree on the value of open source.
Personally, I prefer to have my monitor at 45° because I like to follow the 3 courses “service à la Russe” code structure. The entrée and the desert of my code are light and short, while the main course in the middle has the longest lines.
I think some of this data is actually available for open source projects by scanning public repositories, although it would be a lot of work to collect it.
You have provided no valuable argument except “believe my experience”, so I am answering with an equally weak one. Provide me some good quality study and I will be happy to change my mind. I recognize this lack of enlightening information is pretty aligned with closed source philosophy.
I agree that you will learn more abstract concepts with more low level languages, but they are often not necessary. See Scala, beautiful language, lot’s of fancy subtle computer science concepts, and a plummeting popularity since its main popularizer, Apache Spark, implemented a Python API.
