jgoodknight | 5 years ago | on: Why does `True == False is False` evaluate to False in Python? (2013)
I find it cool to explore these edge cases, but putting anything like this in a real code base is a terrible idea BECAUSE there are so many different ways to interpret it. Sure a < b <= c has a clear mathematical meaning which works towards python's overall mission of being clear, but in general please good people only have one or two variables in your conditional statements!

Interesting... what are the chances something like this gets implemented in Silicon and actually speeds up computation or is this purely of theoretical interest?

I do think it's worthwhile to question building an incredibly expensive particle collider without a specific purpose in mind, when the money could go towards fields like fusion energy, quantum computing, or cancer research
