[pydotorg-www] wiki: unicode decode error

[Mats Wichmann]

if someone feels like putting in some wiki time.... this page:

https://wiki.python.org/moin/UnicodeDecodeError

is a prominent hit in search engines.  It's written from a Python 2 
perspective, with just a single line down at the bottom saying "Python 
3000 will prohibit encoding of bytes...".

That message has become the bane of both people rushing to do Py3 
conversions, and new programmers, who read from files, sockets, 
processes, etc. and don't notice/realize they're getting bytes.

sure could use a helpful treatment for today's reality...

at the moment I can't put in the time to figure out how to explain 
strings, bytes, unicode in Py3, but I know there are other resources 
that do so quite well, I wonder if a pointer to a few would be a 
starting point?
