Everything to know about Requests v2.26.0
Starting in v2.26.0 for Python 3 the new default library for encoding detection will be charset_normalizer which is MIT licensed. The library itself is relatively young so a lot of work has gone into making sure users aren't broken with this change including extensive tests against real-life websites and comparing the results against chardet to ensure better performance and accuracy in every case.

Ask HN: Could you show your personal blog here?
Unlike many people here, I don't like to write hundreds of mediocre posts. Instead, I prefer very few posts, that unfortunately are still mediocre.
If you're tired of all the perfection that exists on the internet, where every piece is deeply insightful and changes your life, I'd encourage you to read my articles, which only promise to shorten it:

Short, friendly base32 slugs from timestamps
I use shortuuid[0] for that stuff, which also omits the capital letter I, and has some other niceties (I wrote the library). It works really well, and I like how small the IDs are.
