Just a small note on the code in the linked script: API_KEY = os.environ.get("YOUTUBE_API_KEY") CHANNEL_ID = os.environ.get("YOUTUBE_CHANNEL_ID") if not API_KEY or not CHANNEL_ID: print("Missing YOUTUBE_API_KEY or YOUTUBE_CHANNEL_ID.") exit(1) Presenting the user with "Missing X OR Y" when there's no reason that OR has to be there massively frustrates the user for the near zero benefit of having one fewer if statemen…

Bizarre is that you don’t consider it ugly. Kotlin: constructor is either part of class definition or keyword constructor. Ruby: initialize JS: constructor Python: ______new______, _______init_______ Literally this meme: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/three-headed-dragon
I like that magic method names generally all follow the same form so it's obvious that they are magic methods and not intended to be part of the public API. Whether that form uses double underscores or something else doesn't really matter to me as they are not being called directly.
Is there an alternative API? No. This is public API regardless of anyone's intentions. Though "it's weird" is really not a very strong argument against it.
“I started to code more in Python around 6 months ago. Why? Because of AI, obviously. It’s clear (to me) that big money opportunities are all over AI these days. And guess what’s the de facto programming language for AI? Yep, that sneaky one.” Why is that? Why Python for AI?
I wonder what the poor guy is switching from.

Possibly because many available LLMs run your Python code in a sandbox, which means less friction for vibe coders, or it may be a contributing factor at the very least.
This is false, a lot of non "vibe coders" are using Python for AI because of PyTorch and a many other AI libraries have first class Python support.
So, i don't get it, now i still need to have a uv venv ?

I am pretty sure some people (maybe this individual, too) may be using Python because their scripts can be executed in a sandbox on one of these websites.
Heck, if it was as good at Factor or Forth as it is at Python, I would be writing more of them, too.
In any case, you cannot claim that it is not one of the reasons. Can you?
