Please, don’t even joke about it.

More like, he paid his bribe, got to rip up regulations and stop litigation that was costing him money, smashed a bunch of shit as a distraction, then fucked off.

And all that happened was that it said “THAT WAS EASY!”

Yeah, maybe they phrased the headline that way for the people who thought the bombers just did that to themselves.

Why not a pond?

Fairest damsel in the leper colony.

Never forget, never forgive.

Thanks, admins, your efforts and patience have been greatly appreciated.

We use Python on the back end of a public-facing website with massive levels of traffic. There are some maintainability issues due to the dynamic nature of the language, duck typing can be tricky for similar reasons, but as long as devs are sensible and test things rigorously, performance is fine, and I’m reasonably sure we’re operating at a scale at least a couple orders of magnitude larger than all Lemmy instances combined. Also, it’s a mature, concise language with excellent libraries, so most non-exotic requirements can be met without too much difficulty.

People mention how its bad but they just assume people know why.

They don’t know why. I supect it’s because nothing works right if you do it wrong.
