Packages Memes

Finally, a package that solves the real problem in Python development: those pesky foreign imports being too fast and efficient! Want your data analysis to take an entire coffee break instead of milliseconds? Slap a 200% tariff on pandas! Need to justify that 3-hour lunch while "waiting for your script to finish"? Import numpy with a 50% slowdown tax! This satirical gem perfectly captures the absurdity of trade politics by imagining what would happen if programming packages had import taxes. Nothing says "enterprise-ready solution" like artificially crippling your own tools for nationalist programming pride. Next feature request: a firewall that physically heats up when you use non-domestic packages.

When you're diving into Python without any background knowledge, those __init__.py files are like mysterious empty rooms in a mansion you broke into. They're literally doing nothing visible, yet removing them breaks everything. For the uninitiated: these empty files are what make Python recognize directories as packages. It's basically Python saying "I need you to put a completely blank file in every folder or I'll pretend your code doesn't exist." Classic Python - solving problems you didn't know you had with solutions that make no intuitive sense.
