Sorry, that's an in-joke. Koos is expressing his disappointment in the rejection of PEP 555 in a way that's only obvious if you're Dutch.Hmm, or more accurately, it has to do with me going crazy because of the frustration of how the PEP 555 discussions went. We could have arrived at the same conclusion [*] in much less time and with less pulling one's hair out.But this discrepancy probably comes from the fact that we're not dealing with the most pure kind of being Dutch here.—Koos[*] Although right now different people still have slightly different ideas about what that conclusion is. --On Sun, Oct 15, 2017 at 3:16 PM, Steven D'Aprano <steve@pearwood.info> wrote:On Sun, Oct 15, 2017 at 08:04:25PM +0300, Koos Zevenhoven wrote:

You seem to be making a joke, but I have *no idea* what the joke is.
Are you making fun of Guido's choice of preferred name? "time_ns"
instead of "time_nanoseconds" perhaps?
Other than that, I cannot imagine what the joke is about. Sorry for
being so slow.
