    It’s fine actually, all of the problemswith python packaging and env are overblown to insane degree.

        Yep, they are.

        Just recently there was an article here, where a person claimed that recommended python tooling is inadequate because they needes to read two paragraphs of documentation. Endemic problem really.

      I used to work at a place that used Jython (which never got updated to Python 3, BTW) and was responsible for trying to keep that shit working even as various libraries started dropping Python 2 support.

      I still get a thousand-yard stare when I think about it.

      (Still worth it vs. writing actual Java code, though.)
