Wow this is not the conduct I expect from a language creator. I don’t care if you’re Albert Einstein. Humility and being able to take criticism is far more admirable to me.
- hjk05 7y agoHe asked her twice to be more specific about what she was arguing, which seems fair after a long tirade of shitting on anything and everything non optimal about the stdlib without any specific point. And he then left during Q&A which is totally fair, he’s his own person and it wasn’t his Q&A, people are blowing this out of proportion.

If twisted has 50% userbase in Python 2 that don't upgrade and requiring more volunteer time on Python 2 just handcuffs language development on Python 3. Python 2 has been deprecated for long time and if people still want free Python 2 support I think it's just indigenous to the language contributors to spend their already constraint free time on Python 2.
