Is it a bad idea to mix programming languages, for example have a node.js server that sends some stuff to a python program that then goes and does other stuff with it. This is pretty vague but what is the best way to send data between different programs, or is this just a terrible idea and I shouldn’t even consider it? sockets?
I don’t see why this is harmful. Polyglot programming is common these days: jQuery and JavaScript on clients, Java or .NET on servers, etc.
It’s common to write web services in Java or .NET. It shouldn’t bother anyone to mix and match.
Use the best tool for the job.
