Interesting question to me is whether it's actually in part fundamental to the success of Python. There are plenty of "clean" ecosystems that avoid at least some of these issues. But in generally they fail to thrive in these type of spaces and people keep coming back to ecosystems that are messier.
Is it possible that creativity and innovation actually require a level of chaos to succeed? Or alternatively, that chaos is an inevitable byproduct of creativity and innovation, and any ecosystem where these are heavily frowned on deters the type of people who actually drive the cutting edge forward?
Just putting it out there as food for thought. It does translate back to quite often, that it acutally does make a lot of sense to do your prototyping and experimenting in one ecosystem but then leave that behind to deploy your production workloads where possible.
- brundolf 4y agoYou can have an ecosystem that's chaotic (and vibrant) without its core pillars being chaotic (and shaky)
- colordrops 4y agoJavaScript is a much cleaner ecosystem but for some reason there's a long running stigma against it. It would work fine for this use case.
