A whole library, or a yet another ad for Python, sorry?

This is more of a problem with how some people code more than python. I also find it irritating that some people import random libraries out of the internet to do simple things instead of actually spending the time to write two lines of code. Python has built in datetime library that could be used for this similar to the examples you gave.
