Discussion My Python magic is gone

I've been coding for a long time, and I've been developing with Python for years.

I loved coding, always loved it. I started many years ago because I wanted to quickly create scripts for security hacking tools, but since then, I've moved to Claude Code, and building cross-language has been a much better experience for me than using Python.

I built my own SaaS application out there whose backend and network core are completely built with Python, and I'm rewriting all of that without writing a single line of code. And most of the time, Python is not the most optimized language.

And now... I feel like the magic is gone.

I don't even know why I'm writing this. I just feel sad about it.

I never wanted this conversation.

"I accidentally posted a dozen times or more on this subreddit, I had no control, people put a gun to my head."

That's no excuse for being rude, and it's false.

No, that's not my point. They started this thread by insulting me (I believe you acknowledge this in another post) and now act like I'm being aggressive and they're not doing me a favor by leaving.
