I found this, which dives deeper into the impact of inefficient software.

Isn’t that only microsoft exclusive and closed source? Also does compiling it really yield the same speed as C, it is garbage collected isn’t it?

I don’t know, I used gnome for a while and I just felt like I was using toy apps. But I think that comes down to personal preference. KDE definitly has the bigger apps like Kdenlive and Krita.

Yes, using them is probably the closest one can get to the macos ecosystem on Linux.

Yeah that point was not entirely accurate. What I meant was, that a np.array and a list don’t work together. Coming from julia and matlab it just does not make sense to me, why I can’t use a function written for a list for a np.array even if they basically represent the exaxt same thing.

Julia for example hast linalg as a module but functions work on lists with no problem.

But I took your advice to heart and installed a Linter

Python is strongly typed, but dynamically checked. Working with other languages I just found, that the type errors in python are the hardest to catch and to debug, but maybe I am just more used to othet languages

I see it’s use as language to write small scripts, I just don’t see much use besides that.

Here is a article talking about the speed of compiled python vs Julia. I don’t see why it is better to go to all these extra steps just to end up with something slower. https://www.matecdev.com/posts/julia-python-numba-cython.html

No I mean, Python is definitely the most used language in scientific computing, but yeah, I would use something else if I could.

Julia, R, Matlab, Mathematica and Fortran.

Yeah, ofc every language must have a type system, the problem is, that this is not enforced. I.e 3 == ‘3’ throws no error, when working with dataframes for example this can be a pain in the ass. But yeah, I don’t say that nobody should use Python (although the title is a bit dramatic) I just think that there are better alternatives out there.

I mean others don’t seem to have the same problem with Python as me, so if it is right for them, I can’t really complain, but I would use the following languages for the following tasks

Scientific Computing (my main area): I prefer Julia, it is faster, feels more intuitive and feels like a modern python for scientific computing

Web: there are many great frameworks out there, i am intrigued by phoenix for elixir

Game Developement: Nobody use python in games to distribute for anything heavy I hope, but for scripting I would use Lua

Learning: Python is often the first language, that people learn, and I guess that also explains it’s widespread use to some degree. I would teach something less high-level like C as a first language, although I think writing “high-level code” also has a learning curve to it.

Scripting: Fine, I guess python is great for small scripts, although one could also use Ruby

The u-he synths are nice.

Reasonable well.

Getting plugins to install is often a big hurdle, if they are working, they work. However I think performance suffers alot. Didn’t try it on any bigger synths yet tho.

That’s where you are supposed to hold a wine glass?

Weiß ja jetzt nicht wie unpopulär das wirklich ist, vor allem bei jungen Wählen, aber ganz unabhängig davon versteh ich diese ends-justify-the-means Ideologie die viele SPÖler haben in letzter Zeit überhaupt nicht.

Ich glaub viele Menschen vermissen eine Partei die für eine klare und konsequente Linie steht, und auch dass Österreich das braucht, und weiß jetzt nicht wie da eine SPÖ die mit Populismus und den Positionen der FPÖ liebäugelt, nur um “wieder eine Wählerbasis zu haben” da reinpasst.
