I encourage every one to at least stop writing code in Python.

Here is some actual useful advice:

Use a type checker! Pyright can get you like 80% of Rust's type safety.

I don't agree that Python can be saved by a type checker. The language itself is flawed irreversibly, as well as its ecosystem. It's a big big mess. Can't build reliable software in Python.
