I think you are wearing pink glasses for Python. The most talked about lib lately is TensorFlow, and its code is worse, than any Java code I've ever seen.

No, I positively hate Python as a language. I don't hate their community, though.

That said, TensorFlow was written by Google in the typical Google Java way. See that bit above where I shit on Google-supplied Java? This also applies to TensorFlow, even though its written in Python.

There is just something culturally wrong at Google, and I don't know why; Amazon and Microsoft and Netflix and whoever else have donated actually pretty decent code to the FOSS community, and none of it is even a fraction of the trainwreck that Google produces.
