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).
