Forunately, tauthon is a community-supported fork of Python 2.7 so that we may continue using the best version indefinitely.

  You'll be laughed out of future interviews if you mention your interest in that project.

    Some people use software as a tool and aren't zealots about versions or constantly chasing updates.

      Yeah, and even those people would snort derisively at a project designed to keep 2.7 alive like this. "Getting shit done" doesn't happen if you can't move forward eventually. I'd have substantial concerns hiring someone who can't get over Python 2.7.

        I think it's less that someone "can't get over Python 2.7" and more "why should I?". Nothing in 3 except bytes/string handling is compelling. Lots of 2 libraries haven't been ported. There is no legal reason to move and no other time pressure. I would argue that people have been "getting shit done" with C for decades, despite newer shinier flavors of the month popping up, so your argument doesn't hold water to me.
