I'm a build engineer at Intel (100,000+ employees), and we strictly use Python3. You act like it's a completely different language. It hurts the community when you blow the situation out of proportion. There are innumerable Python3 libraries, and while there are most certainly more in the Python2 camp, who cares? This isn't a dick-measuring contest; it's a change for the better in a language we all seem to like.

Is Python the main language you guys use, over Java/C++ as well? And what's the context of its usage? How do you deal with stuff that's missing, do you just have your own employees fork and port existing libraries?

I'm not asking as a challenge to you, I'm genuinely curious.
