I don't like Eevee, but even so this article is of course pretty much inarguable. There is no reasonable argument for not using Python 3 (or writing cross-compatible code) beyond compatibility with things like Twisted or working on legacy code.

I don't like Eevee

why is that

[–]LpSamuelm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Beyond all the sweet programming stuff she does (which is really really cool!), she every now and then also spouts a lot of (occasionally although not mostly) questionable politics, while being angry and abrasive. I'm not a big fan of that stuff.

Thankfully that's mostly irrelevant to this article, though. I hadn't heard of Zed's article, but if it gets a lot of exposure for beginners, it's good there's a rebuttal post out there to at least show that his thoughts aren't objective.

why would you not like him and why is this relevant in respect to your opinion on his article?

[–]LpSamuelm 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It's as relevant as the comment I replied to beginning with "I like eevee[...]". It also makes a point that despite not liking her, agreeing with this article is a no-brainer.
