Fully agree about Go; however, if you can't move away from Python, github.com/pantsbuild/pex is a pretty good alternative. It's an executable zip file that contains all of your python dependencies; you still need the Python interpreter and any shared objects that don't come with pip (e.g., for whatever reason, the Python graphviz package depends on the graphviz-devel system package and the latter doesn't ship via Pypi). It's still an order of magnitude worse than Go, but it's an order of magnitude better than pip or pipenv. :)
