Does the standard implementation include any similar debug rendering? Seems like the coolest part of the project! I tend to stay away from Graphviz a lot more than I otherwise would these days due to the lack of manual formatting controls (

You may want to dig into gangstalking as a cultural phenomenon before you legitimize it with that equivalency. This is not cherry-picked; I just went to the subreddit and found a relatively recent post: https://old.reddit.com&#x2

Shadows of Utopia is a really good Cambodian history podcast. Tides of History likes to cover African/Asian/Precolumbian a lot. Highly recommend both.

Very cool! Thanks for sharing - it’s always nice to learn about fingerprinting tricks and workarounds, from both a privacy and a “don’t unintentionally look like a bot” perspective. What inspired the project?

One of the books cited in the article, The Comanche Empire [1], absolutely changed my reading of Blood Meridian. It gives a lot of insight into the political and economic state of Texas/Mexico/New Mexico in the 1800s, and highl

I haven’t kept up with the latest research, but the term for what you’re asking about is “induced pluripotent stem cells”.

With full acknowledgment that it would be better to have at least some of those in the stdlib, Pandas covers all those needs pretty well in practice, with the bonus of workarounds that sidestep CPython’s usual performance limitations.

What you seem to be looking for here is a Fourier transform/spectrogram. Vast majority of audio processing toolkits should have prebuilt tools along those lines for you to use.
