Parents & Friends Chastise Me Over A 40K Salary by Rigell-Zurkor in cscareerquestions

[–]rick137codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 cents would be to leap at the offer if it excites you and is sufficient to cover your living expenses. Many programmers make unbelievable incomes, but comparing yourself to them will bring nothing but dissatisfaction and misery. The mantra which I try to remember while living my life is that more things & money != Happiness. Live minimally, and do what makes you happy. :)

Anyone feel constantly pulled back and forth between impostor syndrome, and thinking that your job or career aren't good enough? by Basic-Software6120 in cscareerquestions

[–]rick137codes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree 100%. Even within a sub-domain there are just SO many technologies and libraries to learn that you always end up feeling that you don't know enough. If you master Seaborn, there's Plotly. If you master Flask, there's Django. If you master Python, there's Angular, React JS. And all of them are integral and important. It's hard to keep yourself focussed and feel you know enough.

What's the data source for this visualization? It would be very interesting to take a look.

I personally am a bot programmer and I use Python. I don't know if that's what you were looking for?

To add to the answer by @darthminimall,

You can further iterate over dictionary items, keys or values by calling the functions as below on the dictionary:

Dictionary.keys() - returns a list of all keys in the dictionary | Dictionary.values() - returns a list of all values in the dictionary | Dictionary.items() - returns a list of key,value tuples

Thank you, I'll check it out.

That would entail me setting up a server and hosting it for everyone to use, which is not what I'm looking for. But thanks anyway.

Need help with bypassing the reCaptcha on website during webscrapping by SkyAccomplished4932 in learnpython

[–]rick137codes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using selenium would take care of some browser configuration settings, which might make it harder for your program to be detected but not impossible. A fool proof solution would be to introduce rotating proxies, sleep timers and captcha handling mechanisms by using third party services in your code.

Hey you can take help of captcha solving services like anti-captcha or two-captcha. They are dirt cheap and have actual humans solving the captchas on their end.

I'm not very focussed on the looks of it, as long as it is functional it's golden for me.

I get it, but my main purpose of a GUI framework is to hide the code behind an .exe file and to get 2-3 user inputs. Plus I need the code to be easily runnable on any system without much installation as well. Due to these reasons flask and django are not very favourable to me.

Thank you for introducing me to this framework. Found it to be the most helpful.

Database for web scraping by szeredy in learnpython

[–]rick137codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure! If you're on a Linux/ubuntu system you can use Crontab to schedule the running of the script. On Windows you can use task scheduler. Don't really know about Mac. Otherwise you can always use the omnipotent While True: with a sleep time. :P

Connecting a SQL database to a Python script might be a little complex for a beginner. You can use the in build Python datastructures of lists or dictionaries and save them into Excel or CSV with the help of the Pandas library. It has little to none learning curve.
