I am also annoyed by Python 2 vs Python 3 situation, however not because of the current incompatibility but about the potential Python 3 vs Python 4 incompatibility that the Python developers have shown to not care about introducing in the future.
If they promise to never break backward compatibility again in the future i might change my stance though, i mostly try to avoid Python than anything than a simple calculator or quick and dirty scripts because i do not want to write any code that may break in 2-3 years without me doing anything wrong.
- stuaxo 8y agoThe switchover to Python3 has taken 10 years (as originally predicted). Guido said there would never be a Python 4, though he has handed over the reigns so who knows. As a Python dev, I wouldn't mind a Python 4 if it fixed some of the older / crustier corners of the API.
