I believe the parent was talking about python3 from a users perspective (they said they aren't a Python programmer) For example when a script requires python3 and another requires python. Python3 is also not included in a lot of base systems. That could be annoying.

This very admirable and evident in this comment thread. I don't agree with everything you've been saying, but the sense of genuiness found in the way you've expressed yourself here is refreshing and very much appreciated. It saddens me that all I see in response are pleas for you to censor yourself. I already see the effects of the anti-negativity community thought police...
Admist the downvotes, know that your words have not fallen entirely on deaf ears.
I'm curious, what's wrong with "LOL"? I thought that was the universally accepted way of expressing amusement on the Internet? Would "haha" have been more appropriate on HN or is expressing amusement generally frowned upon? I apologize for being ignorant of this matter. I'm not quite yet acquintated with proper self-censorship protocols necessary to communicate on this site. It seems rather strict but I honestly don't find that to be a problem as long as the cultural rules are well defined.
As for the topic at hand: I beleive nim, nimrod, are key words that might be flagged for inappropriate content. They are similar to "nimph", "nimphomaniac", etc.
