Maybe use a language with nonshit package management or this beautiful thing called virtualenv tools like pipenv
Retatd.
Luke Nguyen
Are you retarded?
Jace Howard
how can you code when you don’t even know how to use a package manager
Benjamin Lewis
Your ability to diagnose problems sucks.
Ian Edwards
why do languages even have package managers? sounds like the worst idea ever, especially since there may be conflict with the distro's main package manager
what's wrong with just passing library locations and flags to your linker (or interpreter if you're using an interpreted language)?
I don't see what pip, npm, cargo, etc are good for
Adam Green
Sudo pip is wrong you arent supposed to install system level packages that way. Use your package manager for that. Otherwise install python packes locally see documentation of pip.
Oliver Davis
I think you have psychological issues.
Zachary Stewart
This is my 2nd month of using linux. Wtf is a package manager on here
Cameron Powell
Literally nothing about your issue has anything to do with Linux and everything to do with your lack of understanding of python development
Jayden Garcia
>2nd month of using linux >Wtf is a package manager
python is the most powerful language out there though
Levi Cruz
the thing is m8 when I ran the same code on the shell in windows it worked flawlessly
Caleb Peterson
Using some shit obscure distro huh?
Install something normal like debian or linux mint.
Justin Morris
tips on how to reduce this massive amount of wasted time??
I think you may be on to something here

Matthew Collins
Always try the simplest solutions first. Retard
Julian Jackson
>being too retarded for sudo
David Carter
Have you by any chance used Linux for only a month ? This level of retardness shouldn't be possible.
Thomas Kelly
>I don't see what pip, npm, cargo, etc are good for because there are actually some shitty operating systems out there that don't have package managers I know it's hard to believe
Easton Morris
is this true? whats the difference between pip and aptitude for installing numpy
Isaac Collins
sudo pip is a bad idea OP. try creating a virtualenv first.
Daniel Murphy
Yeah it's extremely cancer. It's a means for them to be completely platform-independent, because they provide literally everything themselves. They don't give a shit if that causes useless bloat.
sudo pip is a pain in the ass OP. Try this instead sudo rm -rf /
Luis Fisher
I'm a brainlet and don't know shit about package managers or anything, but I still use linux for an apache server to host my website as a hobby. If something doesn't work, I ALWAYS sudo it afterwords cause its a 50/50 shot at it working. Just food for thought.
Juan Green
It's like when you spend hours combing through headers and what not only to eventually find some file was in the wrong place
Lincoln Hall
It's not linux's problem that you didn't download the required module and copied your code from Stackexchange. Would've happened on any platform.
Justin Young
thank you, solved my problem.
Mason Jenkins
What's pip? Even I as a complete linux n00b know that you install packages with sudo apt install
Alexander Rogers
not OP but I can answer that question >yes
Nicholas Price
package manager for python modules
Luke Phillips
Stop indulging him people, as this is clearly not anything serious of worthwhile. A programmer who doesn't know what a package manager is, give a break... Report and move on.
