Geeking out w my Macbook Pro 2014, which I barely ever configured beyond basics. Have to admit there's decent coding potential w elegant tools (Homebrew etc.), but GNUtils > BSDutils & the Python schism just sux
Linux can often be a mess, but it's my mess & I'll miss it on MacOS. I'm not a manpage wizard, but I can navigate Linux fuzz effectively/safely for the most part (besides scratching some persistent itches)

Python schism?
-
System Python vs Brew / Anaconda / what have you Pythons. Let alone the 2 vs 3 schism in general. I never really coded on Python per se, but had to live with it for ~2 decades on Linux
-
I see. An issue for me in the past, too. With brew it’s easy peasy, can’t really complain. I don’t use coda ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
Tbh, I'm afraid to install Python using Brew. Using system one for now, although I had to finesse setting up pip already. Also pondering on whether to go full GNUtils http://www.nyx.net/~mlu/pages/computing/installing_and_configuring/installing_and_configuring_command-line_utilities/ …

Dont be imo - installs in different dir and creates new symlinks. $ python --version 2.7.x $ python2.7 $ python3 --version 3.6.x
-
Heh, see what I mean, I've been dreading the symlink hell. Already confused about where the various nifty pkg managers install stuff (eg. pip install --user)
-
With brew python you only have pip3 then. Pip doesn’t come preinstalled to python 2.x. $ pip3 --version pip 9.0.1 from /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages (python 3.6)

No pip3, just this one (which I brew-installed, I guess?)pic.twitter.com/APSOSQ4pIn
