  • I disagree that optparse is more broken than argparse. As someone who wanted to add some (trivial) features to argparse, I quickly backed away from that code [1]. To be honest, I was really surprised how needlessly complex that particular code is.

  • dnf

    Package manager based on libdnf and libsolv. Replaces YUM.

  • Lots of people use python apps and not know about it. I don't get where the idea that it's complicated comes from. You run them the same way as everything else. For example if you use anything redhat-based you're running a python app (https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf). If you're running any desktop environment, you're likely using at least one python app or something with python scripting embedded.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
