Yes... There are cases when python is an inappropriate language to us= e...
So???

I didn't say=A0 she couldn= 9;t optimize in another language, and was just prototyping in Python. I jus= t said she was optimizing her python code...dufus.

=A0

Its good to get a bit of context here.

loop:
jmf says python is inappropriate.
Someone asks him: Is it? In what case?
jmf: No answer
After a delay of few days jmp to start of loop

loop:
mov head,up_your_ass
pu= sh=A0 repeat
pop repeat
jmp loop
=
[BTW: In my book this classic trolling]

=A0
And the title of this book would be..."Pie= ces of Cliche Bullshit Internet Arguments for Dummies"
