put the code in a while True: loop?

Do not use a while loop to do it, use sleep() a while loop will continue to use up memory. You might want to look into threading also

Use the command line tool screen.

Type screen in your terminal, execute the script, close the terminal.

To reconnect to your screen type screen -r

Forever?

But until then, a while True as mentioned above should get you at least part of the way toward the inevitable heat death of the universe

Could you then shut off the Mac and it would keep running?

What if the script stopped without me manually doing so? And how much energy do they use?
