No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Why does everybody wants to use python ๐
It's easy to learn, has many packages, one of the most well known languages
easy to learn yeah ig. But for anything more than a simple 1 file organized script is not (easily) doable. I dont even want to start with the indentations. Yeah many packages :) But why? Because like half of vanilla stuff from other languages cant be done without it. Most known? Most started to learn language. Those "script" kiddies count in there too. I have to work with it everyday and i dont know how such bs could ever been created from a sane person.
Most of it is personal opinion and will spark like html is not a programming language some heated discussions here.
A project that is seperated in different files is as difficult as in C(++), Java or Rust. Regarding the itendation I agree, but that's personal preference. What 'vanilla' stuff can't you do without libs?
Typing, Interfaces, enums, abstract classes ( i didnt meant 3rd party libs ). I dont statet those difficult but stable programming languages. Java is simple and is organized. the default JSON encoder is not good implemented too. As it is f*cked when there is not a build in type like date, dateTime etc. as date and datetimes are still build in types.
What can you do in C without including stdio.h? Almost nothing. Far less than with python. Ignoring built in libraries is no fair criticism imo. Also all that you listed can be done without importing anything, just with oop (yes, in a turing complete language you can already anything but I meant it is not even that complicated to implement these things with basic python)
I think it is an mediocre language if you're into compiter science or dev, but for scientific programming and simple tasks it is great. So for some it is the best beginner programming language.
Python 3 has all those things built-in, and datetime has been there forever:
What's wrong with the json encoder?
yeah i meant internal libs.
Json encoder does shit with datetime objects.
