> My Python and Go apps from 2018 still work exactly as they did on day one

My NodeJS apps from 2014 still work exactly as they did on day one as well, what's your fucking point?

My point is that the JS ecosystem is masqueraded by script kiddies who will throw a hissy fit every time someone criticizes JS, and you just proved that ;)
This is an embarrassing comment, there are few things this world needs less than more smug engineering tribalism. Even weakly typed languages. Typescript has many downsides, as does Python, and if you think the downsides of Python are trivial then I would invite you to take a look at the sea of different competing tools for environment management. I need a python env, now will that be with pyenv or venv or pipenv or pyvenv or virtualenv or poetry?
