Yea I skimmed the rest. This makes me ashamed that I even bought the guys book (Learn Python the Hard Way). His attitude is what is going to kill python, not python 3. I moved from Perl 5 to Python 3 hoping to flee the internal dev fighting and attitudes, yet here I am again.
I'll say this, at Pycon 2016 I attended some dev sprints/hackathons with the python 3 developers. Python 2 is no where on their radar, its dead. They have moved on. There will be no additional compatibility layers or any of that. All of the mainline libraries that everyone uses (django, sql alchemy, etc ) have moved on to python 3. If you haven't, you should to.

- viraptor 10y agohttp://pypy.org/download.html http://pypy.org/download.html py3.3 support is at alpha level. py3.5 support is in the pipeline and already available for testing. It's unlikely they'll do any effort that's targeting py2 specifically anymore.
- ant6n 10y agoBeing in alpha isn't exactly 'having moved on' ;-)
- mattip 10y agoBut there is a plan and the milestones are being achieved.
- rbanffy 10y ago> His attitude is what is going to kill python No. The rest of the community is much better. In fact, his behavior is an aberration.
