Enterprise Python code. Somehow ends up being worse than Java enterprise code. I’m too used to it at this point.

The "Python vs Java" debate is probably one for a different Hacker News post. :)
I meant that some of the code reminds me of enterprise python. The kicker is that code that works > pretty code. People here act as if ugly code is somehow lesser just because it’s ugly. Meanwhile there’s a lot of ugly code making millions of dollars.

Didn’t mean to bash your project. Sorry if it came across that way.

It's OK. No offense was taken. It almost looked like the conversation was expanding into a "Python vs Java" debate, but (thankfully) it did not. I've seen both worlds. I've seen advantages to both. I decided to stay in the Python world.
Same. Although enterprise python is akin to wrestling a boa constrictor.
