Python is a simple and concise programming language with a thriving open-source ecosystem.
This article is not to blame Python, but to clarify some misunderstandings and misusages with Python, as many CS students' first programming language is Python. I write this article to help some CS students from getting confused or stuck with Python and CS study.
During my internship experiences, I worked for companies that are migrating from Java to Kotlin/JVM. I hold strong belief in Kotlin's future because of the increased efficiency and maintainability with Kotlin.
However, there's several issues I had met with migrating to Kotlin. For example, the transition from build.gradle to build.gradle.kts and buildSrc, from Lombok and APT to data classes and KAPT or KSP, and compatibility problems with null safety, reflection, dynamic proxies. These issues took a toll on developers' energy and impacted product quality.
