For your reading pleasure

From here:

...

I absolutely cannot write python. Maybe it's a read-only language? I don't know.

...

Whatever the deal is, though, python just doesn't make things easy. Whereas ruby operates on "least surprise", python seems to operate on "do it your damn self" or something.

I haven't struggled this much at every step since I first started shell scripting almost a decade ago, and frankly, it was less troublesome then because I knew it was my problem.

...

Will I be sorely tempted to carry a gigantic python book around at all times, so the next time someone talks about perl being executable line noise I can hurl the book at said pythoner? Yes, yes I will be so tempted.

...

Python? "Do it your damn self."

You do know the meaning of fun, right?

lmao... funny stuff... although I dont know anything abt python n perl other than the fact that they're prog. languages.

Just googled it...
"Python has been an important part of Google since the beginning, and remains so as the system grows and evolves. Today dozens of Google engineers use Python, and we're looking for more people with skills in this language." said Peter Norvig, director of search quality at Google, Inc.

Anyone who struggled with shell scripts, even if it was when they started programming, should quit programming immediately.
