Ah good points. I do get a bit triggered from people who do crap on languages when hey you’ve built something, it works well, but it’s not written in whatever fad is current. Then go and rewrite it in react five times.

> The fact that these awesome Python packages are just wrappers over C/C++ doesn't change much - for some reason people using other languages are not willing to write and maintain wrappers of similar quality, including documentation.

True, the older I get the more I’m amazed at communities of people who just build things and keep them running. It’s impressive. But hey calling Python from other languages is pretty sweet.

Though I recently found the Python libraries for automation stuff to be lacking. So I wrote my own library with Claude. I suspect that the friction of creating good wrappers in smaller languages is lowering. I still used Python for actual clicking with a super small rest api.
