: These eccentric complaints do leave me just a little puzzled ... (and, incidentally, also tempted to suggest that you apply a good linter to the slight opacities of your English, but that is neither here nor there) [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 03:18, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

: I do understand the huge importance which you attach to the 'Pythonic' subset of Python, but I have to say that beyond being grateful for the PEP linters, which I always apply, I am not over-interested in it per se, and I have certainly never claimed to be modelling or demonstrating
: I do like Python, and, like everyone, I find its libraries very useful indeed.
: I also like functional programming, by which I mean constructing code, wherever possible, by the composition of pure functions, minimising the use of mutation.
Line 42:
: I am also aware that your own interest in Rosetta code is very much built around your oft-repeated proposition that it is '''all about''' being idiomatic.
: My own interest in it has a slightly different focus. I don't think of RC as a parade-ground or a museum for modelling spotless uniforms. (I feel that automatic linters can take care of major lint).
: Instead, my personal view is that presenting solutions to the same task (in as many different languages and idioms as possible) provides insight into how languages are similar as well as different, and helps learners with a grounding in one approach to a problem to learn another. (See the RC landing
: We can disagree on that core focus, and there is absolutely no need for us to persuade each other. We can just submit different code.
:
: I am not quite sure why you feel that I am aiming to 'flood' RC with examples in order to mislead readers about exactly what the Pythonic subset is like. To be honest I am not terribly interested in why you might think that, just as I was not terribly interested when you were (equally eccentrically, in my view) trying to persuade people, on these pages and on Reddit, that my code was automatically generated by a secret transpiler project :-) (A Haskell to Python transpiler ? Good grief ... whatever for ?)
: I am writing Python code
:
: I dare say that you may partially believe your conspiracy theories (secret transpilers, 'masquerades' and 'underhand subterfuges'), and I have no particular interest in weaning you off them, but I must ask you to refrain from using them to authorise campaigns of '''bullying and harassment'''. I am not, oddly enough, a demon, and by somehow persuading yourself that I am, you are, I fear tempting and authorising yourself to behave more than a little disgracefully.

:: 'Multi-language' ? What does that even mean ?
:: Stop it ! [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 03:23, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
::: Ai ... and now he abuses privilege in an attempt lock edits and bake in his own graffiti. What is going on ? [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 03:38, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
:::: When I look at the history of this page (or, at this page itself, I do not see who you are responding to). So, some questions:
:::: (1) Are you responding on the right page?
:::: (2) Do you have reason to believe I am seeing something different from what you see?
:::: Thanks... --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 17:17, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
:::: I should add that I did have an odd experience with edit locks and browser behavior when I posted that edit. (From my point of view, I hit submit, got an edit conflict warning, hit submit again, saw the page without my intended text, hit back on my browser and resubmitted the form, saw my edit, then looked at history and saw that the page reported I had posted three times - the second time being a reversion of the original text. I am going to leave that there because I think it indicates a flaw in the underlying posting system, and we'll need to leave evidence around if anyone is going to get around to fixing that.) --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 17:21, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
::::: Donald/Paddy3118 locked down the edits in his own edit war on the Tree Traversal page last night

::::: This is the second time in recent weeks that he has started an edit war and then tried this tactic during the course of it.
::::: A little tiresome, and the rationales proposed express some slightly exotic perceptions ... (See his talk of ''subterfuge and masquerade and underhandedness'' etc last night on my talk page ... ) A few months ago he was expressing the view on Reddit that my [code was written by a secret transpiler project](https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/9re7o9/what_tool_could_produce_this_python/), and asking for help in tracking it down :-( I hope he's OK ...

::::: On Oct 26 and 27 2018 (McNuggets and [[Talk:McNuggets_Problem]]), the theme was that my Python code should be deleted, because Donald apparently perceived its idiom as the pursuit of a "private vendetta" :-(
