I believe it! One glimpse at the latest docs tells me that every major builtin library I knew is depreciated or gone. I’m not even sure if secrets is still the correct encryption library. Honestly I might have to start fresh with Python like it’s a new language

Well the last version I was actively using was 3.6 and the shiniest new feature I remember is switch cases from 3.7, so yes it has for me

Would you recommend it? I’ve seen the wrath of khan, it was alright but tos just can’t hold my attention like tng

It’s even happened to me with python. I stepped away from programming for a while and now all the guides are about 3.8 while the version on trixie is 3.13

Dynamic stacks are pretty common in the most popular scripting languages, but considered bad practice from folks who use systems languages

Lol I totally made it up on the spot. My thought process being:

• It at least has to not taste awful
• Vermouth is a fortified wine and vodka is a common fortifier
• Screenshots are digital images of digital imagery

Sweet vermouth and vodka. Chilled and neat

Edit: Screenshot JPEG version - add crushed ice

It works as intended because you haven’t integrated yet

It’s ok for symbols to have different meanings in different contexts. If someone is new to the context, they should research or ask about it. People that are familiar should provide the mutual understanding, provided they have the will and ability to educate.

I highly recommend the online book How to Think Like a Computer Scientist.

Fun fact, the person maintaining this book is professor emeritus from my college and received multiple awards of recognition from the IEEE

And what was the outcome of this IP theft? A video mocking a multi billion dollar corporation? They took down the specific product called out, but they still make extremely similar dslr bags to peak Design and they’re definitely still copying other companies designs. This is my point. IP laws only benefit the billionaire class and fuck over everyone else.

You’re saying that like it isn’t already rampant. IP laws are a textbook example of classist disenfranchisement. It’s a rule for which the capitalists are protected and not bound by, but which workers are bound by and do not receive those protections.

I work for a game company, the only reason I would tell you not to use a pirated version is because it probably isn’t cracked properly and will throw client-server errors. You’ll want to crack it in a way that will still receive the playlist updates

Create a file handler class to avoid the issue

Yea, I’ve seen those pop-ups when trying to find something out. It sucks but isn’t a significant barrier to web scraping

Well that’s part of the thing. Web scraping doesn’t get covered by policies. Like, they could ban your ip or any accounts you have, but web scraping itself will always be acceptable. It’s why projects like NewPipe and Invidious don’t care about YouTube cease and desist letters.

Too bad the website is still openly accessible and still capable of being scraped

I get what you mean, but I prefer massive fines due immediately vs expensive and drawn out processes. Using my example, the very absolute bottom of the barrel Intel’s fine could be is a percentage of over $500B (Intel’s revenue in 2009 was $35B, multiplied by 15). Even at 1% based on this floor, the fine would be over $5B.

Personally, I think it would be easier for all involved to just fine based on a percentage of global annual revenue from the date of the violation to present. If they want personhood so bad, then they can have this too.

Edit for an example: let’s say Intel does anticompetitive behavior 15 years ago and a court case finds them liable for damages today. Add up the last 15 years worth of global revenue, and take a percentage of that.

They’re currently shaking hands and too busy to let us borrow their names
