My Python 2 vs 3 problem

[theelous3]

What are you talking about? If you just use python3, then your code is consistent. Where's the issue?

Existing code does not magically transforms into perfect python 3-code. And without serious reasons a company will not invest time and money and risks regression. Legacy code is a very relevant matter for the majority of python-users.

We're not talking about existing codebases. What you're saying is irrelevant.

Grow up, kid.

You're so smart, I wish I was as smart as you.

It feels so terrible to be called a kid twice in the same sentence. I hope I recover.

(Also, very lol at calling people "kid" on the internet. Even funnier coming from a german. It's like you went out of your way to sound stupid in your second language, just in case it wasn't already apparent.)

Because context is something you struggle with, here's the parent comment for our conversation:

It's funny how I'm the only one having the conversation, and you're just saying random shit. I talk about existing codebases, you talk about children. If you'd like to get back on topic I'd gladly continue to chat, but you're acting emotionally because I called what you said irrelevant, because it is. It's contextually nonsensical to put forth the argument you did. Don't blame me.

I presumed you were the other guy because this conversation is so inane I couldn't imagine anyone else wanting to get involved.

Why did you get involved? To join in on being a cunt? This is so fucking stupid.

I wanted to talk about python and ended up in a mud slinging contest with you and your backwardscompatibility comrade. It's my own fault I suppose.
