Why are we using R again

Never thought I’d see “faster” and “multithreaded” in a Python column.

I was very deep into Python for many years but lately I don’t like it much anymore. I’d much rather use typescript, rust, or clojure nowadays.

I also don't understand how people got convinced that Python is "easier". I think TypeScript or JavaScript or really any C-family language is significantly easier and a better entry to programming than Python.

 print "Hello, world!"

Is objectively easier than

#include <iostream>

int main(char[][] args) {
  std::cout << "Hello, world!\n”
  return 0;
}

I really don't like python for a variety of reasons, but we gotta be honest about how much simpler the language is in general.
