I think Python 3 is the language for *everybody* to know. It's easy enough that most people know it, it's got a standard library so complete that you can do almost anything with just Python 3 and its standard library. And when you need something special, there's plenty of that too. Nowadays, I wouldn't be caught in any profession not knowing Python. I bet carpenters, Uber drivers, lawyers and network admins of all stripe can gain from it.

downgrade darktable
how can I go back to the previous version and make it so that updating the computer won't upgrade darktable? My computer is not powerful enough for 3.8. The lag is not too horrible but enough that I don't want the new features.
