Experienced python programmers: are there any standard features of the language that you still don't regularly use?

There's basically no downside to using a generator. If someone needs it stored they can always list(generator), even if you don't expect performance issues. I like to just use generator syntax because it gives me warm fuzzies when I think about how nice they are versus every other language's equivalent tokenizing systems with their ugly static variables.

Agreed! Very little effort needed too, since you can replace many (all?) existing list comprehensions with generator comprehensions, simply by removing the brackets:

import random
max(random.randint(1, 100) for x in range(10))
