I attended a few newbie classes at pycon2016. A few of them suggested Learn Python The Hard Way, to which I pointed out how the author states to never try installing python 3 on the first page.
- AstralStorm 10y agoThe author should essentially be banned from community and his book no longer recommended after that lest someone believes him. You're essentially giving up great features like async keyword and proper encoding handling getting nothing in return. The few libraries that are still Python 2 only should be ignored.
- Chris2048 10y agoYou should essentially be banned from the python 2.7 community for saying these things.
- rubberstamp 10y agoI also saw that but gave the author benefit of doubt that may be the book was written years ago and not updated. I have completed switched to python3 for almost 2 years now.
