Python Migration Strategies

Jordan discusses the challenges and strategies involved in migrating from Python 2 to Python 3, emphasizing the use of tools like Python Future and code transformers. He highlights the importance of gradually modifying the codebase to adopt Python 3 features while still running on Python 2, allowing for a smoother transition. The conversation also touches on the significance of backward-compatible changes introduced in Python 2.7, which facilitated this migration process for large codebases like Pinterest's.
