how about: pip install pip install -u sudo pip install conda install sudo conda install some packages require one, are fine with other with few small warn

  If you’re installing a Python package into the global site packages directory (ie, into the system Python) you might need sudo. That’s how permissions work. I don’t know the -u flag on pip, never used it can’t find it in the docs. With a virtual environment sudo is not needed. Assuming you created it, and/or it is owned by you. Virtual environments are just directories on disk. They are not complex. I don’t use conda because it’s never felt even remotely necessary to me. pip and a requirements file is all you need.

    -u flag is short for --user ( https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42988977/what-is-the-purpose-of-pip-install-user https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42988977/what-is-the-pur... ) how about when you are authoring script under your name, but then want to schedule it for cron to run periodically? I often find myself working under my user on remote server, but then I want to schedule cron job - and run into all sorts of permissions / bugs and missing packages. especially when multiple machines need to run this script, and I don't want to involve containers to run 20-lines simple python script. this is why Golang is so popular - you can just scp a single binary across machines and it will just work.

      I’ve started packaging up my clients python scripts as docker images. Works great for cron tasks and updates/rollbacks are a breeze

    I also forget a out: 1. pip install (with/out --user flag ) 2. pip3 install (with/out --user flag ) 3. sudo pip install 4. sudo pip3 install 5. conda install 6. sudo conda install

  And because conda wasn’t enough, there are mamba and micromamba rewrites of conda in C++.
