  • Exactly this: don’t engage. You may be 100% right and justified but the energy you invest even in responding is lost/wasted. It’s a temptation to be right and you’re falling for it. Your attention could be elsewhere.

    For example, I use YouTube as a learning platform mainly, but sometimes for entertainment. If I started arguing with someone in the comments then I’ve strayed from my own understanding of the platform’s place in my life. I try to weild technology with more awareness and avoid those pitfalls.













  • ‘Scraping’ is the process of anonymously and programmatically collecting data from a webpage(s), often without the website’s permission and only limited to the content made publicly available. This is in contrast to using an API provided by the database owner which is limited by tokens, access volume, available end points etc.
