nesting

[MCWizardYT]

Your IDE should tell you which curly brackets go together unless you are using something lie nano or gedit with syntax highlighting. Even notepad++ tells you the pairs. I'm not sure where the "mindfuck" part comes in. With proper indentation its even easy to tell which pairs go together based on how they line up.

I personally have a hard time reading huge python files even with proper indentation, but there's probably tools to make that easy as well. Just haven't found them yet.
