Pythonista/Pythoneer - ichabod801 - Jan-16-2017

I used to prefer pythonista, because I thought it sounded more revolutionary. But then I realized it sounded like someone who writes scripts to serve coffee.

I don't feel right calling myself a pythoneer, since I'm not doing new and interesting things with my code.

I decided I'm a pythologist, since I do spend a lot of time trying to figure out why things are broken.

Pythoneer sure sounds like a Python Pioneer. But perhaps for someone, who calls himself so(and not e.g. put the title on a business card), one can consider pythoneer as python engineer.
Then it may include both, finding out what/why is broken, and using available tools creatively to solve and improve things.

Wouldn't that be a pythongineer?

Yes it could be. It didn't come to mind though, and doesn't sound as smooth either :D

and if you consistently copy another's code and claim it as your own, you are a 'pyrate' or perhaps a 'pythuccaneer'  Smile

No one suggested Parselmouth?

I believe you just did  Big Grin

  • pythant: Someone who suggests really nit picky changes to your code.
  • pythong: A small bit of Python code that barely does the job.
  • pythonise: Convert code from another language into Python.
  • pythonite: Someone whose is overly fanatical about Python or PEP 8.
  • pythontology: A cult that worships Guido van Rossum and uses P-meters to audit code.
  • pythonym: Another obvious way to do something in Python.
