I'm glad you mentioned SSL. Because hey - that broke some scripts in 2.7.9 ;-) https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0466/ https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-04

(Can't remember the details, but it may have been something about some extra hoop you'd have to jump through to trust self signed certs that broke our testing infrastructure)
- acdha 7y agoTotally agree - I just don’t see that as a distinguishing factor since we had a bunch of shell scripts break, too, as various CLI tools stopped behaving consistently.
- scbrg 7y agoI guess this is a YMMV thing. My experience is that Python rots more than shell scripts, but of course I understand that this may not be universally true, and depends a lot on what your scripts actually do (and, to a large extent, on how they're written, of course).
