Python bundled Tk. Academia loved it. Imagine being able to script knobs and dials into your doctorate thesis in a few lines 20 years ago without knowing Delphi.
They loved it so much that they made homework-solving numerical libraries. They turned into numpy.
At some point, almost every undergraduate and most of finance industry was churning python. Python 3 was released. People hated that. Microsoft was interested. Guido started following modern languages. Asyncio was buggy. Pandas was built. Django was jealous of Rails. Not much happened for a while. AI! CNNs! Deep neural networks! Alpha go beat everyone. Tensorflow! Suddenly everyone did pip install. Cuda, pytorch. Ruby got left behind. Asyncio got fixed.
