my programming language hot take is that python-inspired languages shouldn't be named after snakes (eg cobra/boa/serp*nt).

Python is named after Monty Python. Python-inspired programming langues should be named after British sketch comedy shows, damn it!

@gsuberland @foone Ugh, hadn't heard of Black Books....

"Black Books is a British sitcom created by Dylan Moran and Graham Linehan..."

Ah, fuck. Another one. I used to like the IT Crowd. This piqued my interest but I'm not sure I can watch another show by him now.

Arthur was the funnier one of the two main 'Ted' writers. And he's a much better drummer.
