New submission from Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org>:

This came up during today's final PyCon keynote -- IDLE was called out
as one of the two editors *not* to use when live-coding on Adafruit's
Circuit Playground Express (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3333).

I *think* that the problem referred to is that IDLE doesn't guarantee
that the bits are actually flushed to disk -- they may linger in the
OS filesystem cache.
