PYTHON

The wise man built his house upon the rock

ffs.

Python is a disease. Look I am all for making software easier to write for the 'common man' or whatever, but python ain't it chief. Software should be written in a stable language, compiled with a stable compiler, and run on stable architectures. You got an old NES game? That shit still works. It will still work as long as there are computers. Because the architecture is known and the rom is an unchanging crystal. Python tho? It along with some contemporary and honestly worse languages are no such thing. Sure you might have a script that works fine. Today. But let a couple weeks go by without making changes to it. See how far that gets you! Sure most of the problems can be resolved with a change to an import here, or a function call there. But it is a never ending process of keeping up with the treadmill. Eventually things get so bad that the only way to fix it is a total rewrite of the program to keep the damn lights on.

What prompted this screed? I haven't liked python for a long time so it's not like anything I write uses it. But. You may have noticed that I use an 'ai' voice model to read my writings here. It's not perfect by any means, but it's better than generic TTS, and pretty easy to use. But it's written in python. And that fucker broke for god knows why. nothing changed on my end as far as I am aware, maybe some automatic update of python broke dependencies. Now I look at the repo for the project and the dude abandoned it because it was broken beyond repair. FFS. People why the fuck do you put up with this? Why do you continuously choose to build castles out of sand on the beach while the tide creeps ever closer? why are there no good alternatives?
