What, weird edge cases involving *signals?* Never! :)
Here's a nice simple one: it takes at least a few opcodes to set said
global flag, during which (depending on the whims of how eval_break gets
set) yet another signal might get raised and handled.

I think the python-announce list serves that purpose. Any time there's
an announcement here, I also see a separate copy of it on

Hi all,
as a moderator of python-ideas, I’ve asked postmaster to place python-ideas
into emergency moderation. (I do not have the tools to do so myself.) I’m

we have to follow them with a ritualistic ":= _" to capture them. Normally we

1. Semantic operator overloading in generic contexts is very different from
this use case. It's surrounded by a clear context.

It would be fantastic if these were expressions rather than statements. Imagine
being able to write things like:
```python

def fibonacci(n):
match n:
case 0:
(return/yield?) 0
case 1:
1
case _:
fibonacci(n - 2) + fibonacci
Inspired by chg:
Could one make a little startup utility that, when invoked the first
time, starts up a raw python interpreter, keeps it running somewhere,
and then forks it to run the actual python code.
Then every invocation after that would make a new fork. I presume

Sure they do, but the *hard stuff* not so much.
I have found 2to3 conversion to be remarkably easy and painless.
