But yes, standards and certifications are horrible.
If it's entertainment like audiobooks, it's for my enjoyment, so why should it be faster than 1x? If it's for education, everything faster than 1x makes it hard to understand, and if there is too much filler content, I will find another source to learn about it.
I use 1.5x-2x for stuff I have to listen too, but don't enjoy.
Metaclasses are however quite complex (or at least lead to complex behavior) and I mostly avoid them for this reason.
And 'Proxy Properties' are not really a feature at all. Just a specific usage of dunder methods.
Windows architecture is great. the WinAPI is better documented and more comprehensive than anything on Linux or Mac.
There are so many other issues. - The file explorer gets slower and more broken with each update. context menus randomly don't show, or take literally 30 seconds to load. - The renderer crashes randomly once a week (it's not a huge issue, but the screen goes black for 10 seconds or so) - the settings dialog is bad. goes through like 5 different layers of Windows generations and recently makes the old dialogs hard to find but doesn't offer adequate replacements (looking at network and sound) - and much more...
Normal day in cpp land...
That's a problem with many of the profiling tools around Python. They often support Windows badly or not at all.
It's just a one day project so far. But it has some nice features like taking a screenshot and reading qr codes from it and storing everything in a single enrypted file (which you can easily put on a cloud drive if you want to sync, otherwise it's completely offline)
It only supports the standard RFC 6238 TOTP so far.
