>Well done, Python… for finding yet another way to confuse us all.

Would have liked to see some humility from the author, especially since he's an interviewer, but instead he deflects the fault onto Python as being confusing, rather than attributing the fault to himself and his own lack of understanding.

Unfortunately, this kind of blame game is par for the course with enginerds. I say this all the time: engineers really should do a sales or customer service job before getting into engineering. This will help you build empathy, which will build your social skills and kindle some humility within you. These traits will give you an edge over other nerds and take you further in your career.
