hildenae··on How Britain got its first internet connection (2015)
It says it was newer published (before now), so would not 2025 be correct?
hildenae··on SeleniumBase: Python APIs for web automation and bypassing bot-detection
Because reasons i don't remember, I ended up doing all my scraping through Firefox (i think it was easier to make PDFs?). Is there something like this that works for running (non-headless) Firefox?
hildenae··on Deploy a Hugo Website to Cloudflare
A bit weird to suggest NameCheap for domains when Cloudflare also sells domains, and spesifically only charge you the registrar fee for the domain.
hildenae··on Web scraping with your web browser: Why not?
I understand that "with/in your web browser" implies a extention or simmilar, but i have good experience using Selenium and Python to scrape websites. Some sites are trickier than others, and when you are instrumenting a browser it easily triggers bot prevention, but you are also able to easily scrape pages that build the DOM using JS and simmilar. I have considered, but not looked into compiling my own Firefox to disable i.e. navigator.webdriver, but it feels a bit to much work.

This is my project for extracting my (your) webshop order & item data https://gitlab.com/Kagee/webshop-order-scraper

Does this way to write an implementation have a name?
hildenae··on Reverse engineering ESP32 Wi-Fi driver: the road ahead
As other comments have mentioned - they do not want to decompile the source, they want a clean-room-implementation.
hildenae··on 120cm to inches
Is the answer not supposed to be ~47.24 inches?
hildenae··on Why Do Python Lists Multiply Oddly? Exploring the CPython Source Code
It is a good explanation of what is happening. However, I think that many of not most Python linters will warn you about this. It is perfectly valid, and something you might actually want, so it should not throw an error.
hildenae··on Stream you terminal in real-time with anyone – without installing anything
Could this solution be extended with a openssl pipe to offer encryption?
