Python wasn't built for multi-threading, which kind of makes it a bad choice for "serious" game programming.
You can do multiprocessing in Python, which is almost the same thing.
Processes are slower to start, and can't share their memory.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Does everyone recommend python?

No.

Everyone has their own take on programming languages and if you ask enough people, you'll get someone to recommend any and every language.

Don't listen to people who tell you not to use this or that language.

Try different languages. See what you like. Use what works for you. Use what works for your goal.

Yeah. IIRC there's a version of Python somewhere (though I can't find it in ~30 seconds of googling) that ignores the GIL that keeps threads running on the same core, actually. It's also possible to manually disable the lock if you know what you're doing, I think.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.
