This isn't really programming though. This is just calling out to seaborn and pandas with an unpleasant interface (Python).

Ok, then I'm not programming. Call it anything you want, I call it "Being productive." Or, "Saving on time spent clicking around in Excel." or "Automating the boring things." And I find it to be quite pleasant.
Maybe it also doesn't help that out there, in the C++, Rust, Javascript, Go world I'm going to run into people with usernames like "ihatepython".
Don't feed the trolls! Case in point, this is a quote:
quote_from_user_ihatepython == """ ihatepython 1 day ago | parent | context | prev | next [–] | on: Moscow Metro launches longest metro circle line
You realize that the Nazis still exist and are Ukrainian, right?Sometimes I wish for "block" function in HN for such trolls (I really hope it's no-life troll working for 5 rubles per comment and not a real person with genuine hateful opinions like that).
This isn't really programming though.
It is however what a lot of people who 'program' at work do every day. Python actually lets working professionals solve real problems they actually have at work quicker and easier than any other programming language.

Ironically, TFA claimed there are a bunch of people “not programming” in python getting real work done out there.
But, with a user name like that, I know I’m just wasting my time responding to you.
