I feel that Python is more to blame for that. When you have two similar languages but one of them takes away the paradox of choice, it’s gets evident why more people would choose Python in the end. I don’t get the hate for Why the Lucky Stiff. Why does every programming book need to be K&R? Not everyone wants to read something as dry as a white paper all the time. |

It's not hate.

It doesn't. Nor do NONE of them need to be.

But some do, and _why's stuff isn't that.
You answered your own question. People like different things. Some didn't like _why's stuff; I'm one. I'm sure the guy is perfectly delightful, I just didn't enjoy nor get much from his writings.
