I mean, that's still 8 years of time to migrate to Python 3. That's more than enough time, IMO.

- mikepurvis 6y agoRight but it poisoned the well; people had already had four years to kick the tires and conclude "yeah nothing works, my dependencies aren't ready; this seems completely not worth it."
- dxdm 6y agoThat doesn't sound like a good reason to sit on your butt for 8 more years while the world moves on.
- mikepurvis 6y agoAt this point we're hopefully past insulting people who did what everyone else did and instead looking for the larger patterns and lessons learned.
- mynameisvlad 6y agoSaying that people sat on their butt for 8 years is insulting now? Come on. At the end of the day, they had anywhere from 8 to 12 years to migrate. In the tech world, that's a millennia. Most products and services will give you months when they deprecate or sunset.
- mikepurvis 6y agoI'm just saying that criticizing individual people or groups is irrelevant when it was so widespread. Clearly the problems are/were systemic, so it's more productive to focus on the systemic causes than blaming individuals.
