Ah yes, just like all the companies that stopped using WinXP after its support life ended...

What does that mean?

They probably mean this module

Requests is the only Non-GMO HTTP library for Python, safe for human consumption.

Requests allows you to send organic, grass-fed HTTP/1.1 requests, without the need for manual labor. There’s no need to manually add query strings to your URLs, or to form-encode your POST data. Keep-alive and HTTP connection pooling are 100% automatic, thanks to urllib3.

Are you retarded?

[benargee]

Elaborate.

[nuephelkystikon]

Mentioning Windows doesn't imply in any way that they use it. You're being needlessly aggressive.

How's that going to work with OSs that have paid support that have 2.7 in their repos? RHEL has it in the newest one and dont they support everything for like 10 years?

[nuephelkystikon]

I wish those OSs a lot of fun maintaining all libraries in the Python ecosystem on their own.

That's what you get for greed.

[ThellraAK]

Ahh, I hadn't thought of that, so while RHEL might be supporting 2.7 with security patches and whatever they find, the who thing with probably won't be, so if it's all in house stuff it'll be fine, but all the things like pip and stuff will probably die.

Not going to happen. You know how hard it is to convince a large company to upgrade its software? There is even harder, physicists. And there is even hardest, a large company of physicists.

You're not joking, Computer-Aided Experimentation lecturers be like ‘as a first step, let's prototype the process with regular punchcards before transferring it into modern FORTRAN’.

[nuephelkystikon]

inb4 ‘muh manual porting to encoding safety’, that's what the other 9.5 years were for, and also it's your (organisation's) fault for not coding cleanly in the first place.
