I, a python dev with a decade of experience sometimes still need half a day to figure out some weird dependency venv import-path issue. This happens often.
It takes me half a day to figure out a reliable way to cross compile rust binaries for Raspberry Pis, withput ever having done this before.
There are a lot of good things about python but the dev environment sucks a lot and it is so engrained in the very substance of the language/tooling that I don't really see a path out of that other than going all Python 4.0 on it and repeating the python2/python3 schism all over again.
Python is still my goto language but it is my goto language despite the tooling, not because of it.
