This is a nit but looks like she says pyc files aren't around in python3 anymore -- they're still there just in the __pycache__ directory (as of 3.2)

I know Python does the dunders and all, but couldn’t they have at least stuck a dot in front of it if they wanted to move it out of the way :(

That won't work on other operating systems anyway.

Those files are typically generated on each platform anyway, so just have the dot on platforms that allow it and not on platforms that don’t.
