though sadly just doesn’t seem to be catching on, as the rise of systems like Node.js continue to spread the idea that you need to wrangle explicit callback spaghetti, descending fully and explicitly throughout all libraries and system calls, in order to achieve asynchronous nirvana, whatever that means.    Using gevent means you don’t get to have the satisfaction of admiring your newly forged, self-satisfying maze of callbacks - it makes programming practical and boring all over again.
