Hi, all. Quick joke, Do you know why all functional programmers are anarchists? Because they want to get rid of the state! :D I know there are a lot more important issues than this, but i feel this is important too. I wish some people could take a look at Python/Cpython pull request #6343[1] and the reopened PR #6362[2]. Little background here, I am a science student working on GIS(Geospatial Information Systems) Web Processing Service as a hobby project. I am a human too, i like jokes. But not at the expense of truth. I hope i can make more meaningful contributions in the future!

Amar,
Loved that joke!
I had a quick look at these PR’s and commented. I do not see any worthwhile improvement to Python by merging these, and there are significant problems with the details in both patches. Hopefully your intent was to learn about the process of contributing to Python, and and the language itself. In that vein, I treated them seriously and hopefully gave you useful feedback.
Thanks,

Hi Amar, and welcome. You might find that you get a more productive response if you write a meaningful subject line and actually tell us what the PRs are about. Nobody has the time or interest to look at every single PR, so if you want to bring your PRs to the attention of those who will care about them, without annoy those who don't care, giving more than just a PR number and link is important. (Also, a subject line that looks less like spam and is more informative will help too.) Thanks. -- Steve
