    [$] Applying PEP 8
    Two recent threads on the python-ideas mailing list have overlapped to a
    certain extent; both referred to Python's style guide, but the discussion
    indicates that the advice in it may have been stretched further than intended. PEP 8
    ("Style Guide for Python Code") is the longstanding set of
    guidelines and suggestions for code that is going into the standard
    library, but the "rules" in the PEP have been applied in settings and tools well outside of that
    realm. There may be reasons to update the PEP—some unrelated work of that nature is
    ongoing, in fact—but Pythonistas need to remember that the suggestions in
    it are not carved in stone.
