HOW DO I PYTHON

Name: Anonymous 2012-07-21 8:56

What's a good tutorial that will ease my pain in my transition to Python and FIOC due to job-related shit? The one on python.org is tedious and looks like it's intended for non-programmers

can go unnoticed due to some extra/less indentation level somewhere
That's not a minor, I myself found two bugs caused by unnoticeable change in indentation yesterday.  They often occur because a person decides to wrap a block of code into if, press tab on every string of that block, and then move on to doing other things.  Sometimes he indents one or two lines incorrectly, especially if the block itself has control structures.  The bug may manifest itself on the first run if you are lucky, but it may as well lay hidden for days.  And my colleagues are not morons, they are actually quite good.

This is a non-issue with C-derived languages (other than JS) and even with the indentation-based language Haskell.

It is ``object-oriented'' but has no interfaces or abstract classes or conveniences like those.
Bullshit argument from a person who doesn't know what an abstract class is.  Because it means nothing in a language without fucking types.

The rest of your points are valid, especially the threading one.
