Most of the core stuff I work on is in C++, but I regularly transition over to Python for automation tasks, data processing, testing, etc. As much as I like C++, Python is much better for manipulating data IMO - the cost of the mental context switch is way outweighed by how well the language lends itself to certain tasks.
