Rubbish, it works just fine in Python 3:
Python 3.6.0 (default, Jan 1 2017, 22:51:19)
[GCC 5.4.0 20160609] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> '%s %s' % ('Hello', 'world')
'Hello world'
And contrary to popular belief, it's not even deprecated (although use
of the newer format method is encouraged). What's more, in this case
it's part of the PEP 249 DBAPI specification:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0249/#paramstyle. As far as I know
pymysql and DBAPI libraries in general don't even accept "{}".
