So glad to see that Python finally made it big in 2022
It's thanks to Django and Flask paving the way in 2003 and 2010 respectively.
Python was an even bigger mess in 2022 than it was in 2010. The version control hellscape intensifies with the more things there are to have version incompatibilities with.
I have lots of experience with node and a little with python.
Python seems great for working with large data sets and I really like jupyter notebooks. The available libraries are really great.
However, the thought of installing a Python CLI app makes me twitchy.
I suspect that node has all the same problems and that I'm used to working around them, but all the Python environment stuff is a nightmare.
Yeah, absolute nightmare of writing
pipx install programname.iykyk
Python environment/packaging sucks, but at least the language itself doesn't.
