I'm glad someone else discovered they can like python.
I got forced to learn it for a project where I was proposing Ruby and the customer insisted on Python. This was years ago when Ruby was much slower. I was annoyed but I got used to it and here I am enjoying it many years later.
I take issue with the description and use of make though! :-D What is the point of it if you're not going to use dependencies? One might as well just write a script with a case statement..... I'm adding smileys because I don't mean to be all that serious but I really do think that the failure of the youth of today to get to grips with Make is a sad reflection on our culture....... and get off my lawn, ok? :-)
I wish python had support for optional braces. Maybe time I copy some snippet or integrate some other project into mine and have to worry if someone using 2 spaces, 4 spaces or tabs.

I started with this and evolved into simple flat Makefiles, because they're basically the same but Make feels more standard (there's a Makefile here vs. there's a random bash script here).
