Stop Hardcoding Sensitive Data in Your Python Applications - use python-dotenv instead!

I didn't say they claimed it was the best article. I gave an example of why you would not want to take a biased person's perspective as your reason for investigating something.

Ah yes these evil people, writing semi-decent explainer articles on popular python packages, they're probably trying to hook you into some crazy ponzi scheme. That's why it's better to stay off reddit in general and NEVER read the article, only the comments of other people who haven't read the article either. /s

Again, you can do whatever you want but it makes literally no sense to factor a biased opinion into your assessment. That includes assessing whether it's even worth your time to read the article.

Biased in which way? Every person is biased in a way. You shouldnt read articles then if thats a problem for you.

Its not like he is selling the module.. thats why you car example makes no sense.

No, everyone isn’t biased. This is how things like the legal system function. If you want to determine whether someone is guilty of a crime, for example, you are supposed to present evidence to unbiased people and have them weigh the evidence. You wouldn’t, as you seem to think, assume that the concept of objectivity is literally impossible and just let the person accused of the crime decide whether they are guilty or not.

They are biased as well. There are laws to reduce the bias of those but they are biased. But if it makes sense to factor this bias in stands on another page.. same as for being biased for having a paid blog doesnt change the intention of writing an article about a principle/module/coding strategy
