Thoughts on AsyncIO
Having async baked into Python both as a keyword and standard library has vastly opened up the number of use cases async will be used in where it is appropriate, one of my favorite libraries pyppeteer would have not existed in the easy nice way it can be used without asyncio: https://github.com/pyppeteer/pyppeteer

Do you have a tip to bypass cookie expiration when scraping a webpage?
Yes, this is scraping. You need a legit new cookie issued by the site. The solution is to automate the going to get the cookies part. The most straight forward way to do this is probably using a headless browser through something like Selenium or pyppeteer.

will requests-html library work as selenium
Last I checked, pyppeteer wasn't a thing anymore, and I haven't tried Playwright but if it has a headless mode, thats what you want so you don't have a browser open.

Getting this error while installing pyppeteer
pip install -U git+https://github.com/pyppeteer/pyppeteer@dev
- Note, the first time you ever run the render() method, it will download Chromium into your home directory (e.g. ~/.pyppeteer/). This only happens once.

Trying to find a way to automate button clicking on work program without image use
The normal Puppeteer package is JavaScript, but I do see that there's a Python port called pyppeteer. I can't vouch for it specifically, but I imagine it's similarly easy to use as the JS version.

HTML to PDF renderers: A simple comparison
HTML to PDF conversion is a common requirement in modern web applications. It allows users to save web pages, reports, and other content in a format that is easy to share and print. There are many libraries and services available for converting HTML to PDF, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. In this article, we will compare some of the most popular HTML to PDF renderers in Node.js, including Puppeteer, Playwright, node-html-pdf, and Onedoc.

Playwright seems to be a superior library for working with headless browsers than Puppeteer, but I will go with Puppeteer.

How to build a WhatsApp AI assistant
This library works by creating an instance of WhatsApp web running inside an instance of headless chrome automated by puppeteer. In my testing, I ran into tons of compatibility issues when trying to use these dependencies inside anything other than a bare-bones Node.js + express server. Also, we can’t spin up a new instance of chrome and WhatsApp web each time a user sends a message, this will exhaust our allowed WhatsApp connections (4 max), not to mention that doing this will make the response times painfully slow.

Show HN: Quetta – A privacy-first web browser with enhanced ad blocker inside
It's a tricky balance to strike. Obviously, krono, you're right: ff we're being generous the app launch GA tracker they use, they probably consider it shares nothing of value or identifiable, but strictly speaking it's not true that no data shared.
I think the audit you do is actually valuable. In my company's product, BrowserBox^0 (also a browser, funnily enough! focused on remote isolation, privacy & security, and including Tor support), we don't collect anything but we want to add some kind of telemetry regarding usage so we can even basically know how many daily users we have (outside of licensed channels where it's tracked in the contract).
Even tho we don't collect anything, we don't advertise "Zero data collection" anywhere, because of how sensitive I think this topic is. I think we really need to be solid on it, if we're going to say that. And to cover us, in the privacy policy, we say "we may collect some data for operational purposes to ensure the continued running of the service" (paraphrasing), even tho we don't.
One niggle is that we use Chrome in headless mode (can also use Edge / Chromium), and while we appreciate the auto updating quality that Chrome has for security patches, we're cautious that maybe Chrome still collects telemetry and sends it to Google even with headless and correct flags (see for instance: https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/afb7d9eb5854e851...)
I know it's not your job...but what's your advice on how to proceed specifically?

How to track anything on the internet or use Playwright for fun and profit
If you've read my previous blog posts or ever experimented with Secutils.dev, you might be familiar with the web resources tracking utility. This utility allows you to monitor changes in web page resources, specifically JavaScript and CSS. While it has a somewhat narrow security-focused purpose — detecting broken or tampered web application deployments — it may not be the type of tool you use daily. Nevertheless, it serves as a good example of what you can build with modern browser automation tools like Playwright and Puppeteer. If you're interested in digging deeper into this specific utility, refer to the following blog post series:
