> I don’t know of any tech companies using Python for anything serious anymore, except data/ML analysis, which is usually not too much code. If you make me rewrite the thing, it’s getting rewrote in Go or Rust, not Python again.
It is weirdly comforting to observe how certain things never change over the years, even in tech. One of them is the hyperboles people deploy when attacking programming languages that they do not like: "I don’t know of any tech companies using Python for anything serious anymore". I mean, except for being the 4th most popular language amongst professional according to last year's Stack Overflow survey. Only JavaScript, SQL and HTML/CSS are more popular. Yes, yes, I am sure it is dying... any moment now.
