Sure, you can build whatever you want in almost any language you want, but 90% of those will be more verbose, harder to read, require compile steps, and be 10x the LOC, and take 4x longer to write... You can have it; I'll keep writing Python.
I agree, but only for very specific/small values of "shit".
A codebase with thousands of lines of Python is IMHO already stretching the limits of readability; when you get to the tens/hundreds of thousands of lines, it's definitely past.
I've tried and used 10-15 programming languages in my days, and while I haven't used them all professionally Python is still by far my preferred language out of all that I've tried. TypeScript comes in at a close second, although it depends a lot on what you use it for of course.
I've managed to write both buggy and working code in all languages, and can't say that Python is more buggy than any other. Slower at runtime, for sure. But not less correct.
Any statically-typed language will avoid this issue.
I recently tried to get stream of controller locations from Steam VR.
I was stumbling around looking for information about that in any language and the thing became a breeze only after I found Python bindings for it.
I never done commercial work in Python in my life. I did PHP, some Java, some Ruby, C# and JavaScript. But I keep encountering Python in stuff I do out of curiosity.
I still use Python sometimes, but have migrated a lot of data analysis onto Julia. Works great.
