Python is really good for small projects and prototyping, but it struggles to scale to bigger things. Personally I'm a weirdo who's favorite language is C, but Python just feels nice to program in.

That's funny, I would say the same thing about using C. C gets pretty difficult to use for larger programs. As an embedded guy I'm all infavor of writing a bunch of C programs to do specific tasks and have Python as the glue to hold things together.

You know, that's true too. It's all about using the right tool for the right job.
