No. Dynamic typing, though, is absolutely a fad.
Dynamic typing is not a fad.
Python is older than Java, older than me. It is still going strong.
"Strong"... how many actual projects run on python?
Half of the internet ( backend) runs on java, banking, your government systems, etc.
It's not a fad, it's just unusable for anything other than research project and small time scripting, which to be fair, it's what it's designed for.
I work in investment banking environments (calculations). Python is everywhere. Java and C++ as well.
Yeah calculations, not actual software... how is this hard to understand... you don't write long lived, stable software that multiple developers work on that needs to do real work in python
So, calculations are not actual software... I'll stop there.
No, it's a script
Well, no
