On: Migrating to Python 3 with pleasure

[kamaal]

This is the most unreadable code I've seen so far.

Just skip all this and use Perl instead. You can write far more idiomatic, succinct readable code in Perl than you can in Python.

The whole point of Python is to not write code this way.

[vgy7ujm → kamaal]

This is what I have been saying for a long time. Readability in Python is an illusion.
