The inverted Turing test, it would seem.

Truly the "good" place indeed.
Wait, no, trio is glad inside. Test this got plus on? Aaaaaaaa!
You... you shut up! Excuse me, I have to go take a shower:-) (/s, edit: to be clear on both sentences here)
Anyway you're right (no /s) - at one point it filled in a gap between the likes of C++ and Assembly on the one hand and shell scripting (bash, awk, grep, sed, each with its own syntax and very little of that shared in common with one another) and I guess Fortran on the other. I still prefer it enormously to everything else - it's quirky but fun:-) - though I get why a less experienced person should choose Python and stick with it, even as we all wish that there was another alternative that would work better than either.
And since I can't resist: Perl is 8-20x faster than Python, and major websites like DuckDuckGo and booking.com use it. Sigh....I guess it's time for that shower now:-).
Perl is... forgotten entirely, despite its efforts in getting us from there to here.
Yup, checks out.
PHP also, but good riddance:-D.
Shell scripting is the ink that makes up these words - without them, you would never have seen this image.
Hi I'm auto-"corrector". There, ftfy. :-P
But... it didn't need "fixing"? Oh...
I'm guessing it says "either I'm being forced to use this language or it's the only related one I know how to use, but only halfway":-)
People keep saying Python, despite how it (1) sucks, and (2) is super annoying to keep up to date, with package management and the like, unlike Perl that is more stable. Though Python is also easy to use and powerful and extensible.
But I think each language type is what it is and has its own set of tradeoffs and balances. Unix is hyper-stable and secure but limited, Perl is powerful but requires discipline to use to full effect, and these days most people don't bother to learn it. Python is... "common", is perhaps the best way to put it:-). C/C++ is even more powerful, the latter bloated, and blamed for most memory management issues (although really, how much of that is merely bad programming practice? Okay, so it allows such though).
And now Rust is the new hot thing.:-)
Gratitude is essential to happiness, studies show and also just duh.
And there really is good reason for it - e.g. all the literal wars fought in the past so that we could have such wonders as we do.
Happiness isn't entirely just a choice, but it is partially one. 💞
Oh, and also chocolate, definitely chocolate.
See, before they started using Jira, they were happy, get it?! :-P
There is an enormous difference between:
rm -rf / path/file
vs.
rm -rf /path/file
If you say that 1+1=2 and they say that 1+1=3, what should be done?
