holy hell python doesnt even have a built in red-black tree implementation, just a hashmap style Dict... There is a third party implementation but the best one is something like 8 months since the last release and the repo only has 6 commits...
How do people even survive in #python?

@freemo i don’t think Python people do that kind of stuff
@louiscouture What sort things? :)
@freemo python is mostly for people who want to learn programming, and it’s mostly used for mathematics and machine learning / ai libraries
.
@louiscouture
This is not the case. A lot of huge, non-math projects use Python.
@freemo
Reddit, spotify, Instagrem, Facebook, Google, NASA, CERN use it.
Many application use Python as scripting language, e.g. LibreOffice, Blender, GIMP, Inkscape, the GNU Debugger, ArcGIS.

I missed some introduction, making the message sound a bit harsh. Sorry.
Anyhow, as you can see Python is used for a huge variety of platforms and applications.
@louiscouture @freemo
ERPnext, Odoo, Tryton (which itself is the base for other systems like GNU Health, Occhiolino), ansible, Slat, OpenStack, mailman, Plone, a lot of Web-Application (based on e.g. Django, Pyramid or Tornado (Facebooc)). BorgBackup, DockerCompose, GNUmed. Used a lot in InfoSec, e.g. in exploit development, detecting vulnerabilites, etc. e.g. GRR Rapid Response.
