Hello and introducing myself.

I've had a pretty varied career. I used to do hard core data comm code, including network stacks, in assembly, C and C++. I transitioned off of C++ a while back and into Java/J2EE, and for the last couple of years I've been doing Python REST servers. I've also done a fair amount of work on Windows in C++ and C#. Also enjoy other languages on the JVM, like Groovy and Scala, and have done some things on the front end-ish using Node, Angular and React. Really enjoy working on large scale systems, and other newer things of interest include Rust and Kotlin.

Honey sent me.

I am, considering. I'm under quarantine until monday though. Can't leave the house so I'm going a little stir crazy.

How about you?

My mom was tested positive a few weeks ago. 3 weeks of quarantine, and if I cough (a smoker) another 3 weeks.

None of us will go silent into that dark good night.

Python REST servers

I didn't know one could (I'm presuming you compile to a 'native' binary ?) - might make an interesting article - Ive done MicroServices in C#, Ruby, Kotlin, now working on Go(Lang), and worked on QA/Testing a Trade Risk App in Gherkin/Cucumber/Ruby and Gauge/Java, and that's only in the last handfuls of years Wink | ;-)

Well, Python is really just an interpreted language for native C/C++ calls.

That said, there are some excellent REST libraries out there. I wouldn't write a server in Python (or any interpreted language for that matter) that requires handling a lot of calls (what "a lot" means, I've never bothered to explore), but it's great for small stuff.

I guess that comes down to 'using the correct tool/hammer for the job' - it may well be that if you know Python and don't have an emphasis on (dare I say 'speed'/latency etc) that it'll do the job, and that's ok

Welcome, I think we can use some Java and Python expertise especially in the Q&A forum.
I think most developers on CodeProject have a .NET or C++ background.
