What's up with Peter Norvig's comment at the bottom? Did he not RTFA? He suggests a solution that the article criticizes heavily halfway through.
- cma 13y agoWeird that he didn't address it, but optimizing for IDEs is not python's style. Although I'm sure the pains they went through with the 2to3 tool might make some of them second guess it.
- kami8845 13y agoWhy is it OK to be rude through abbreviations? You'd get heavily downvoted for asking "Did Peter Norvig not read the fucking article?", yet that's exactly what you've put into everyone's mind with your comment.
- philwelch 13y agoInitialisms like "RTFA" lose their literal intensity through overuse.
- icebraining 13y agoWell, to me RTFA is such a common expression that I don't even associate it with the original words anymore; it has become a word on its own.
