Nice work any how. Much appreciated!

For me, it's exactly the opposite. One of the reasons that I like Hivemind it's coded on my beloved Python :)
I really like Python. I'm getting to use it at work recently and have experimented a little with Steem stuff.
So, we have a few nodejs maximalists on the SFR discord and I feel a bit outnumbered being more inclined to use Python.
Perhaps it's just because it was the first one I started learning but had dabbled with Java back in my high school Comp Sci.
How would you describe the advantages of Python over other languages?
Contrasted from PowerShell (which I believe is a language based around .net), I know that Python seems to be much more slim syntactically. (Ie for loops much simpler. Forgot those damn curly braces!)
IIRC Java is a compiled language while Python is interpreted so perhaps that has some significance.
Awesome
