So, recently I was talking to a friend and somehow we got to talking about religion and stuff. When I complained that religion is often put on a huge pedestal and that it’s really just a glorified opinion and should be subject to the same criticism as any other opinion, they told me that that was a really hot take....
I see religion as more of a set of opinions since it covers more than one single thing. A set of opinions typically are the building blocks for culture.
Texas needs to control people because they believe in small government. How else do you display freedom and amall government other than restricting rights and punishing people? /s
They probably wouldn’t understand what a software engineer is. I would explain to them that we have mechanical devices that are so complex that humans have to write instructions on how it behaves. That’s probably not enough, but would be enough for them to ask clarifying questions.

These days, you have several options. You could use JavaScript/Typescript via React Native which builds both iOS and Android.
You could use Kotlin Multi-Platform, builds both iOS and Android, vut I believe you will need to know some Kotlin for Android and Swift for iOS.
You could use Flutter, which uses the Dart programming language, also builds both iOS and Android.
Then there is MAUI using C#, builds both iOS and Android.
Finally, you could resort to native for each platform.
As you can see, there are plenty of options. Picking one comes down to what you need and which language works for you. Keep in mind, most of the languages aren’t really close to Python.
Kotlin and Swift have similar syntax and neither are like Python to be honest. If I were to pick one, Kotlin all the way. You can do a fair amount of back-end work with itas well.
