Problems with Python (disadvantages) explained

What is Python not Good For?

Not suitable for Mobile and Game Development
Python is mostly used in desktop and web server-side development. It is not considered ideal for mobile app development and game development due to the consumption of more memory and its slow processing speed while compared to other programming languages.
Top Advantages and Disadvantages of Python: A 2020 Guide

What are the drawbacks of Python?

Disadvantages of Python are:

Speed

Python is slower than C or C++. But of course, Python is a high-level language, unlike C or C++ it's not closer to hardware.

Mobile Development

Python is not a very good language for mobile development . It is seen as a weak language for mobile computing. This is the reason very few mobile applications are built in it like Carbonnelle.

Memory Consumption

Python is not a good choice for memory intensive tasks. Due to the flexibility of the data-types, Python's memory consumption is also high.

Database Access

Python has limitations with database access . As compared to the popular technologies like JDBC and ODBC, the Python's database access layer is found to be bit underdeveloped and primitive . However, it cannot be applied in the enterprises that need smooth interaction of complex legacy data .

Runtime Errors

Python programmers cited several issues with the design of the language. Because the language is dynamically typed , it requires more testing and has errors that only show up at runtime .

This is what ocean acidification is doing to creatures in the Arctic

Image
The Arctic ocean acidification is much worse than we thought. As we emit more and more carbon dioxide, the effects are being felt not just above ground, but also underwater.  A marine snail shows damage to its shell (jagged line radiating from center) due to acidic ocean waters. Image credits: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration NOAA Ocean acidification is often regarded as the unseen twin of climate warming. It’s unseen because we humans don’t spend much of our time underwater, but for the creatures that do, it’s a catastrophe. When carbon is emitted into the atmosphere, a part of it gets absorbed by the oceans, producing carbonic acid. This acid essentially dissolves the shell of marine creatures such as mollusks, sea urchins, starfish, and corals, making it difficult or impossible for them to survive. Researchers have already identified this process, as well as the way ripples it down the entire oceanic food chain. But according to a new study, it’s even worse than w...

A record 53.6 million tons of e-waste was produced last year, says UN

Image
There's sign of decline in the near future. From flat-screen TVs to cellphones, humans generated 53.6 million metric tons of  electronic waste  last year, almost two million metric tons more than the previous year. Only 17% of the waste was recycled, with the rest ending up in landfills, incinerated or just unaccounted for. Electronic and electrical goods such as computers, refrigerators, and kettles have gradually become indispensable in modern societies, making lives easier in many ways. But they can also have toxic chemicals, and a growing production of waste is damaging the environment and human health. The figures for last year, reported by the  United Nation’s Global E-waste Monitor , are equivalent to 7.3 kilograms of electronic waste for every man, woman and child on Earth, though the use is concentrated in wealthier countries. The amount of e-waste is growing three times faster than the world’s population Citizens of northern European countries produced the most ...

What are the benefits of using CBD topicals

Image
Because topical CBD interacts with the body differently from products taken orally, effects could vary wildly. CBD (cannabidiol) products are all the rage right now, with countless companies and merchandisers offering a wide variety of options. While edibles are usually the products of choice, some prefer topical CBD products to avoid gastrointestinal problems or to reap potential pain reduction effects from local application to specific body parts, such as a sore shoulder or ankle. It is, however, extremely probable that there are significant differences in outcomes between oral and topical administration of CBD products.  What’s CBD and what is it good for? Credit: Phyto. CBD is one of the many compounds found in  Cannabaceae  plants, or, as most people call them, cannabis plants. It can be extracted from both the marijuana and hemp plants; however, most US states require that CBD oil products come from hemp and do not contain more than 0.03%  THC . CBD oil does no...
