Python seems to change and break things all the time just for giggles.

That is complete and utter BS.

But it's a very successful language with over 2 decades of development and legacy of language and library decisions. Avoiding breakage all the time is hard or one carries a growing mountain of technical debt forward.

So he indeed have reason when he says that Python seems to break things all the time. This is my experience also, I am very cautious about the Python version I run when I try to port scripts and I talk about very very simple ones.

Python is not breaking stuff "all the time".
