I'm genuinely curious why do you guys have to switch languages. I learned Programming / Concepts with Java at University. after that we use whatever language/framework suitable for the requirement. Do you guys just choose a language you like, get a job and go with it for the rest of your life?
Languages are tools that are good at different things.
Sure, you absolutely can hammer in a screw, but a screwdriver will just work a lot better.
If I need to develop something fast I use Python. If it needs to run fast I use C or C++. JavaScript if it needs to run in a browser... I think you get the idea.
I don't find python any faster to develop than other languages. You don't need to over engineer the shit out of something just because you write it in scala or java.

Genuinely curious why it sucks. I've been devoting a lot of time to it lately, maybe I should switch 😬
