Hey guys, thanks for reading my blog post and posting it on Hacker News. :)

It was just an informal brain dump for me and nothing too serious, so please don't take anything to heart. And indeed, I have only spent a limited amount of time with the other languages on my list. I still intend to keep a close eye on them all as time goes on.

I'll try to respond to various comments :)

Update: Hacker News is rate limiting me, sorry folks. I'll try again to post some replies in a little while.

Thanks for posting! The crowd can get harsh and maybe not everyone realizes that making it onto the HN front page briefly != "This is proven research and you should all listen to me right now". Blogging can be about learning and brain dumping and, IMO, you should carry on doing so.

Thanks a lot for the encouragement, it means a lot :)

It is tough to read criticism but it's always a good opportunity to learn. The comment about mypy for example was correct and I'm pretty sure I'll be trying it out on my next Python project. I've updated the blog post with minor amendments and corrections based on the feedback here.

Indeed this was my first time on HN (which took me by surprise) :)
