“complaining about X” when X isn’t your preferred tool of choice also sadly seems to be a recurring theme on HN comments. Where’s your post about doing something similar in your tool of choice?

I have no intention of starting or getting into a flame war between Ruby and Python, both are great languages but I can help with the Python tooling a bit. The Python equivalent of rvm is pyenv (https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/blob/master/README.md) and to install dependencies and handle virtual environments after that you can use pipenv (https://github.com/pypa/pipenv). Both of them together will get you almost similar experience to the Ruby tooling example you ended the post with.

I love why the lucky stiff's writing, I love POODR (http://www.poodr.com/) and the two languages have a lot in common if you just keep an open mind about it :)

I do appreciate the effort you've put into this response, unlike parent. Well done. Next time I have to do something in python, I will try pyenv and pipenv (and maybe write about it, too)

Exactly what I expected as a response. Thank you for confirming my suspicion!

You provide so much value. Definitely an MVP hackernews user.

Why should I spend my valuable time to help you when you literally spend no time to help yourself and instead blame tools for your inability to use them? Reread your posts in this thread and your blog post and show me where there’s any sign that wouldn’t be a lost cause effort.

I'm happy you provided me with standard HN comments, though. Well done, to you, too. Very VIP HN.
