Also, do y’all call main() in the if block or do you just put the code you want to run in the if block?

    I would love that! I do think there are probably interesting underlying personality factors / preferences for a lot of this stuff as well.

    I do think that many of Python’s characteristics map to my own personality and I bet there’s something to that. Things like syntax of course, but not strictly syntax, also things like “The Zen of Python”, and the way its a “jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none”. I also really kind of need the freedom and accompanying responsibility to break any “rules” on a whim (Python will happily let you overwrite its own internals while running, for instance), but I almost never do anything that uses it…

    I could probably keep going lol. Feels like a “people looking like their pets” scenario, lmao

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts :)

      Damn, that’s cool and I did not even know. Pretty sure I would not do this in production code, but very glad very this possibility exists
