It's called a programming language for a reason

As a professional software engineer, the number of times I actually have to use math skills is pretty low

Even when I worked on a statistical application for lifetime prediction, most of the work wasn't figuring out the correct math

What's leagues more important here is conceptual thinking and being able to model complex human-made constructs in your head

the number of nanometers used to name process nodes (see the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors) has become more of a marketing term that has no standardized relation with functional feature sizes or with transistor density (number of transistors per square millimeter).

Pretty interesting, thanks for that link

So we're soon at 3nm, when have we reached the limit of what's possible? An atom is 0.5nm?

I very much doubt that you can run old code unchanged on newer Java versions. Especially not without dependency updates

This problem is not exclusive to Python
