python's "soft" keywords (intermediate) anthony explains

[@_Robin_]

Learned something new that I feel would have taken me years to realise. Your enthusiasm is also unmatched and it makes a would-be-boring topic very interesting. Thank you so much and keep it up! ♥♥

Looking forward to the 3.12 new features video!

soon! once rc1 lands I'll make it -- glad I didn't record it yet because one of the things I was going to dunk on already got removed \o/

[@tobb10001]

​@@anthonywritescode please tell us what you were to dunk on anyways. :D

[@sportslover8396]

Do you have a series of python intermediate ---> advanced ? I would like to go through in a organized way

[@Julie9009]

I also assign the re.match() result to a variable called match, and I haven’t yet used the match function. I hadn’t even thought about the potential clash. Very clever of the Python devs to implement soft keywords as a way to handle the potential clash by looking at the context

[@MrChickenpoulet]

interesting! wasn't aware of this

[@pylang3803]

type as a soft keyword feels weird :D

[@nexovec]

I have an idea that we could try to list all instances where python breaks its API to get it's actual real semantic version.

[@tobb10001]

This is a nice example, because REG.match would have also been broken if match would have become a regular keyword.

Very useful. Thank you.

I didn't know we had mad mans in our society who code python in the terminal
