pip is the bane of my existence
Also python IS loosely typed. take a str and you can reassign it to an int or whatever
You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Python is strongly typed. What is is is dynamically typed, also known as "duck typing".
Strong typing doesn't have a widely agreed upon definition. Duck typing is not equivalent to dynamic typing.
Objects have strong, definite types that never change. Variables do not have types and can store [a reference to] any Object.
Yep last time I tried python, it's type checker was so, so much worse than typescript.
Everyone I've met saying python is better turned out not have used modern JavaScript/typescript.
I'm sure that's the case, but the meme is not making fun of typescript, its making fun of his dad: JavaScript, maybe for not comparing to his son: typescript
