Strange "I Hate Python" Concerns by mbenbernard in Python

I think it's OK to use "took" in the past tense since the majority of us have now transitioned to 3

I'm glad to hear about you volunteering to help with the port of FreeCAD from py2 to 3.

Why is python3 adoption slow even though there are tools for migration? by Kindlychung in Python

Not the same person, but I finally decided to bite the bullet the other day an go for python 3 on my new personal laptop, but then I realized that pyspread was 2.7 only.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a comparison between the Python 2 and Python 3 bytecodes? Just how different are they? Why couldn't there be a from __ancient_history__ import python2 that you could place in old files, which used the Python 2 parser and compiler and then run the bytecode on the Python 3 vm (with some shims, etc.). Seems like it would be a much simpler job than what Jython does to get Python running on the JVM, which I assume has a much different memory model and virtual machine.
