How to batch scrape Wall Street Journal (WSJ)'s Financial Ratios Data?
Ya, thanks for advice. When using requests_html library, I am trying to lower down the speed using response.html.render(timeout=1000), but it raise Runtime error instead on Google Colab: https://github.com/psf/requests-html/issues/517.
- 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.

Which string to lower case method to you use?
Example: requests-html which has a rather exhaustive README.md, but their dedicated page is not that helpful, if I remember correctly, and currently the domain is suspended.

Top python libraries/ frameworks that you suggest every one
When it comes to web scraping, the usual people recommend is beautifulsoup, lxml, or selenium. But I highly recommend people check out requests-html also. Its a library that is a happy medium between ease of use as in beautifulsoup and also good enough to be used for dynamic, javascript data where it would be overkill to use a browser emulator like selenium.

Requests_html not working?
Quite possible. If you look at requests-html source code, it is simply one single python file that acts as a wrapper around a bunch of other packages, like requests, chromium, parse, lxml, etc., plus a couple convenience functions. So it could easily be some sort of bad dependency resolution.

Web Scraping in a professional setting: Selenium vs. BeautifulSoup
What I do is try to see if I can use requests_html first before trying selenium. requests_html is usually enough if I dont need to interact with browser widgets or if the authentication isnt too difficult to reverse engineer.

Logging code mess
Definitely not for production, but for debugging (esp. in cases where interactive debugging doesn't work) I've found PySnooper very useful

“I think the vast majority of developers still debug using print() statements”
Shameless plug: PySnooper is a debugging tool for Python that lets you debug in a way that's as easy as adding print statements, but gives you a lot more information automatically.

No more Print For Debugging In Python Anymore
If you want to install a library, pysnooper is cool. It's like an automatic print on every line of your function, with values.

The unreasonable effectiveness of print debugging
The Python package PySnooper is pretty good for "fancy" print debug statements: https://github.com/cool-RR/pysnooper
I've caught quite a few bugs using this show-me-all-locals() approach...
