What is "real world software development"? Of course it is
exactly what I happen to do and it is done exactly the way I do
it. Nobody uses scripting languages, nobody uses Python, all
programming is web development, real development is done in an
IDE, real development is done in a corporate setting as part of
a team of at least 15 software engineers and involves automated
testing and dependency checking and code reviews. Nobody uses
garbage collection. Real developers don't use a compiler.
I have nothing useful to add to this discussion. It's Sunday
morning and this lecture about how I'm not a real programmer
annoyed me.
