  Sure, but it works, and that’s what we build upon. And then people build upon that. If we really wanted, we could say simple loop is building upon the work that humans did when we simply invented/discovered counting.

  we were specifically taught in school to not write something that’s already been written, we all build upon each other’s work, literally going back thousands of years when you consider the importance of the math that underpins all of it.

  That’s mainly what all of the researchers who turned the papers into a functioning jupyter or colab notebook knew how to do, and at the time python was the main language used in notebooks (I think it still is), so if you wanted to share it widely, you had to do it in python because you knew the people who were going to use it and improve also used notebooks heavily.

  Then as an added bonus, us programmers who somehow found our way into those slack/discord channels knew enough python to help them out when they needed it here and there. This was essentially before open ai or anything like that existed, particularly in its current iteration.

  From there, web languages were added as a wrapper, so it’s easier to use for everyone than a notebook, where you had to click through each cell and maybe debug something now and then to get it to work right.

  Hey at least they are getting a heads up, valve nerfed bunny hopping with the cs 1.6 patch out of the fucking blue, and it really decimated the tfc communities skills, as many of the best left the game.
