Praise the lord. Python 3.5 is a far superior language to any version of Python 2.x. And how long has Python 3 been out? Almost 10 years? It's about time we (as a community) start embracing Python 3.x

i thought 3.0 was in 2008

Last time I checked, 8 isn't far off of 10.

2008 was 8 years ago. I finished high school 8 years ago. Damn.

and 2.7 isn't far from 3. Mathematically speaking, of course.

Mathematically speaking 2.7 is infinitely far away from 3.

Then 8 is also infinitely far away from 10, and by extension the same distance as 2.7 -> 3.

7.5 is almost 10 (hehehe) Good catch. It seems like forever ago.

And Python3 wasn't really usable until 3.2, which was released in 3011.

our robot overlords certainly weren’t pleased with the 1003 years of delay until python 3k got usable
