Around 100 games release on Steam alone EACH DAY.
About 700 games in the week around your release.
AAA release? Successful release AAA or indie, in your genre? BOOM you are done.
Also, not only are you competing with other new releases, but the entire backlog of games on every system a player owns. :)

Take all the "indie success stories" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of devs in that time who have tried (again, 100 games a day, 3000 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "making it."

Steam cut, higher self-employment taxes, no benefits, no retirement, AND to top it all off: Your sales diminish over time, so even if you hit this "mediocrity lottery" you'll have to do it all over again in a couple years.

it's just shorthand for using a function that returns a function
python's first-class functions is one of the only decent things about it. I don't mind the meaningful whitespace garbage as much now that there's good tools that deal with it for me, but that made me despise the language many years ago.
Now I think it's "fine", and the reality is that it won the interpreted language space, so it is what it is and my feelings about it don't matter.
