I can't cope with python because of the lack of 'use strict' - I continue to be sad that 'explicit is better than implicit' is supposed to be a rule of python except apparently not for variable declarations (also I want block based lexical scoping damnit).

With the addition of 'let' - which to my brain is just "how javascript decided to spell 'my'" - I'm actually really quite enjoying it.

(and the javascript proposal for 'match' is written expecting the proposal for 'do BLOCK' to happen, and 'do BLOCK' is going to make me a _very_ happy mst)
