    Eh, Python has a very small slice where I’d consider it the right tool for the job for me. It’s for when I want a less awful bash script, but going much bigger than that makes me miss type systems.

      People like to use it for AI, data science, machine learning (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras, …) and even scientific stuff (SciPy, SymPy, AstroPy). So it seems to be the right tool for some jobs, which is all that matters. Your job may be something entirely different and that’s absolutely fine.

      (And no, I don’t use Python either.)
