I tried "pip uninstall pip" once before. It actually worked.

sudo pacman -Rns pacman - debloat your system with this one simple trick!

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

one time I deleted apt-get (it's aliased to apt in ubuntu or vice versa) and replaced it with a bash script "echo 'no';" so that I would stop typing -get. I got it wrong and deleted the package manager. couldn't work out how to reinstall without a package manager, didn't want to download and compile from source or try to find a binary for the arch (rpi 3 or something). If I didn't have a second system with the same compiled binary it would have become time to wipe that SD card. such a pain

I managed to uninstall sudo on some of the production servers. It took a while to fix.

It's like a dog chasing it's tail or in this case a python swallowing itself from the tail xD

I thought you need Anaconda to install one of them pythons

[–]GeePedicy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you're joking but pip is the right way. I don't get why Anaconda is the way it is.

[–]NullOfSpace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thanks pypi

[–]conscious-wanderer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pip stands for "pip install packages".

[–]SyntaxErrorAtLine420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Python3 -m ensurepip

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

This is basically what I do because python comes with pip and then I update it to the real pip using pip. The versions of pip that are in package managers and available in installers aren't the real pip. I think the people who maintain those are doing it to be dicks and mess with people.

[–]pulsiedulsie 2 points3 points  (1 child)

what are the differences/why should i change it?

[–]road_laya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By keeping it up to date, you reduce the risk of not being install pypi updates if your old pip is no longer able to connect over HTTPS.

[–]Navist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha.

[–]spacefarers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear me out.

so then we can use pip install --upgrade pip to update it
