  1. There are a lot of people who think JavaScript (of all languages) is better than Python because it is faster. That is such a load of cr@p. As the UNIX gurus knew, "Programmer time is expensive. Computer time is cheap." So I will consider a language that makes me more productive as a programmer far superior compared to a language that runs my code a bit faster. Note that this maxim is from the seventies. Compared to back then, computer time has become many orders of magnitude cheaper, and programmer time quite a bit more expensive. And while Python is from a later age and not quite a scripting language, scripting languages were invented by the UNIX people for exactly this reason.
