Python's pip sucks deep af.
I love Python. But the package manager is SHIT! -

Or it comes to your door, doesn't ring the doorbell and leaves after 3 seconds without any notice. After that sends the parcel back abroad where ever it came from without any notice. -
aaxa22217y@Lahsen2016 Imo, I think it sucks because it installs packages system wide and not just for one application.
This means you need to have a closed environment for every Python project, to ensure that you don't break anything when updating packages.
That's what I think sucks about it. -
@aaxa how about using vitual environments? That way you dont need to mess aoround with system packages.
-
aaxa22217y@NeatNerdPrime I know, that's what I just wrote. The fact that you need that makes it annoying

@Lahsen2016 incompabilities when reconstructing buildings. Sometimes the installer just breaks. With some c error. I fix that error and what happens? I get another one. Then another one.
Until I manually install the wheel of a package. Then the --trusted-host option. Whatever you are doing, it just keeps fucking breaking.
It has system wide package support. That's bad. I need thrift==0.9.3 for an older project and thrift=0.10 for another project. I don't like having to uninstall and install all the same package all the time.
Let's switch to machine learning.
To be more accurate on that, let me elaborate. Tensor ducking flow. It has problems installing that package. Same can be applied when I want to do that on my other laptop. The same ducking problem.
Python: let me manage those packages for you.
Node: here's the whole post office. You're welcome.
c: Write the packages yourself.
Luarocks: What the fuck is a package
