Susskinds...Me too, but the refinement of the error messages is the point.
We should be looking at the full assessment of the error, which the
prototyping of python should present.

I've seen others reply that python wouldn't be around, or that theree are
other forms I've seen before that will take the forefront.

The point should be to align the prototyping of python with the updates in
technology taking place.

It should be like it usually is, line for lineerror assessments, even
followed by further info to inform the prototyper that is looking to
translate to a lower level language.
