as a fan of @pythonbytes, @realpython, and @talkpython - i especially enjoyed this podclash. Some very reasonable observations on cloud, microservices, data protection, web analytics and more - this show felt quite the #zenofpython https://realpython.com/podcasts/rpp/272/

When people have pushed that around me, I show them the Zen of Python. It's important enough that it's the climactic line.

> Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!

`from x import y` throws one of Python's greatest features in the trash, and mashes everything into a single namespace, with all the opportunities for collisions, accidental overwrites, thinkos, and other problems.

Don't do it.

Just found myself considering when/whether to work on a particular blog post that’s been bobbing about in my brain, and I answered myself with “Now is better than never. Although never is often better than *right* now.”

I have been assimilated.

#Python query: should the string message inside Exception (sub)classes be considered part of the API / contract?

On one hand, client code performing "stringly typed" comparisons to a caught exception's text, is a code smell. Changing to raise a subclass of the old exception, w/ a different message, "should" be backwards compatible.

OTOH, esp when a codebase historically had too-broad exception classing, users have to #ZenOfPython rule 9 & do that string compare. Now they're broken. Ugh.
