I really enjoy writing Python, but I’ve noticed a recurring pattern in organizations where it slowly turns from a productive tool into a frustrating mess. The more Python spreads across teams, the more fragmented it becomes—every group has its own way of using it, dependency management spirals out of control, and deployment workflows end up duct-taped together.
I wrote up my thoughts on why this happens, based on what I’ve seen in different companies. This is just my perspective, but I’d love to hear how others have tackled these challenges. Have you seen similar problems and how did you deal with them?
