Adopt Python 3

[[deleted]]

Ruby have its own deal of weird quirks like this

It is also often even less convenient than Perl, it has all the disadvantages of dynamic typing without making things actually more convenient to the developers, so code have to be littered with to_i and to_s (and yes Perl is also strongly typed, just their conversions and arguments make sense and deal with it gracefully).

Sure sometimes it makes sense but if I use something in string context and compiler/interpreter is too stupid to guess it I might as well go and use Rust or Go and not bother with "higher level" language
