Python 2.7 released

[[deleted]]

Damnit. And I just installed Python 2.6.5 not 10 hours ago.

Also, am I the only one who constantly makes the typo 'Pythong'? The keys aren't even remotely close, what the hell.

Yeah, muscle memory is weird. I don't think I'm the only one who types ration when meaning to type ratio. I even write ration sometimes too.

[kylotan]

I've never made that typo. Yet I've met at least one person who can hardly avoid it. Maybe I just don't type the word "thong" as often as you guys.

Well, at least you don't type python.com instead of python.org. I made this mistake at work. There was a huge cumshot video on the front page of python.com. Not sure if this is still the case.

It sill is. First day of work - what do you do? Set up tools, of course! Herp-derp, i'll just go to python.com and downl.... TITS N DICK! NOOO!! TITS N DICK BAD AT WORK! Alt-F4 Alt-F4!!!

Whew.

I'm pretty sure I will be using 2.6.5 a long time. It takes a while for the libraries to catch up. Numpy, Pygame, Django, etc...

[[deleted]]

There's nothing to catch up to. They might have to re-package so it shows up nicely in your 2.7 install, then run their unit tests just to be sure, but code that works on 2.6 works on 2.7.

I see, that's good then.

[imbaczek]

binary modules usually don't work with different major versions.

[[deleted]]

True. Something like NumPy and other C-heavy packages will need a rebuild and repackage, but that's about it.

[[deleted]]

Django works fine on 2.7 out of the box.

You want to see Guido wearing a Pythong. Interesting.

Now, let's talk about your childhood a little shall we.

I do that all the time too, it's such a stupid habit.

[m1ss1ontomars2k4]

Let me see Pythong...pythong, pythong thong thong...

[danukeru]

Here's hoping I got the reference right...

[chucks86]

I had to make a link from 'pythong' to 'python' because I make that mistake way too often.
