I'm always, and will still be, surprised by the number of hard coded
decimal integers one can find in Python code, when the portable way to
do it is to use ctypes and figure out whether your literals should be
big-endian or little-endian, 32-bit or 64-bit, etc. Yet people
continue to just put decimal literals in their code! It can't be
portable.
