Ask HN: What are your pain points with Python?

Since the introduction of wheels I’m mostly happy with package distribution. In most professional projects we include wheels of all dependencies in the repository, which allows us to install everything without downloading any additional data (and this also ensures compromised packages will not automatically creep into our projects).

Good static typing is something I miss more and more in Python, though the tooling around this keeps improving.

* Whitespace as a delimiter. I don't care if it's a tired argument.

* That there isn't actually one obvious way to do it, there's often many.

* Python as a language does not fit my idea of elegant at all. I do not enjoy programming with it. I use it because of it's immense popularity and reasonable levels of documentation.

Perhaps it is minor, but I hate how not all packages are imported using the same syntax. For example you have "import numpy as np" and then "from keras.layers.convolutional import Conv2D" You have two mix two different import styles. Ugly.
