You can always stop upgrading and join the python2.7 crowd (apparently not as big as it appeared it would be a few years ago).

Python 3 upgrade was a complete disaster that took over a decade. They should have just called it a different language name and started at 1.0.

Edit: And, if Go doesn’t learn from Perl and Python’s mistakes it is going to suffer greatly.

I disagree, Python is now stronger than it was years ago. Now all companies that I interact with are magically on Python 3.

They were also estimating that it will take this long.

IMO they should give shorter time to upgrade, because everyone was waiting to absolute last minute to migrate.
