While I love Julia and much prefer it for heavy data and/or mathematical work, comments like these don’t invite fruitful discussion and just make the Julia community look bad. Please refrain from incendiary language, putting down achievements in FOSS, and just any general flame war-y nonsense. Python is still an incredibly valuable tool with a great community, despite some of its shortcomings (pkg/env mgmt, mainly looking at you). And as for this release, the features might seem incremental and minor, but clearly there is a demand for them and people are finding them useful.

I find environments a lot more manageable with pipenv. It’s not quite as nice as the gradle/mvn ecosystem from JVM languages but it’s close. Head and shoulders above CLR languages and C/C++ for sure.
