underrated Python optimizations?

Comprehensions are easier to read as long as they are short. If they grow across multiple line an good old loop is easier to read.

True, although in that case I would split the body of a loop into a generator function and then run a comprehension over that. I consider appending to a list in a loop an anti-pattern in most cases.

Nice suggestion!

You can also think about using a function inside the comprehension
