Well, thank you Hwang. But I'm sure there is some Python pro
reading this who thinks that code stinks. Normally I always
encourage people to listen to the pros, but in this case, let's
settle for "the truth is somewhere in between" :)

Development is Python is very, very fast. Speaking of the
pros, I don't even dare think how fast they develop in Python.

As for the coolness and beauty, well, compare...

Python:

__version__ = time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d', 
time.gmtime(os.path.getmtime(pathlib.Path(__file__).absolute())))

Lisp:

(defvar bot-version)
(setq bot-version (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S"
                   (nth 5 (file-attributes buffer-file-name)) ))

eheh
