... some stuff we have kinda resembles china's social credit score if you really think about it ...

ok, maybe

... so yeah, it's totally fine lets do it ...

WHAT

imagine some people started using hammers as weapons, leading to some gruesome murders vividly depicted by the news. as a result, construction companies started advertising that this house was built without the use of ANY hammers. that's how I feel about cookies.

cookies are not the problem. spyware is the problem. the way cookies work is, the server includes a "SET-COOKIE" header in its response. it is literally a request, which has no power, other than your computer deciding to store the data locally and include the cookie as a header in its subsequent requests.

somehow instead of us collectively relying on our own user agents to not comply with requests from remote servers that are not in our interest, we settled on deciding the cookie itself is a dangerous mechanism, which is stupid.

wow that sounds like a PITA to deal with

was expecting to see examples of python tests you would use, presumably for testing the rust code? like, how would writing the tests in python be easier?

I would like a workstation with 900k cores. lmk when these things are on ebay.

man, the python examples in there .. I am always low-grade irked by those! until now I wouldn't have been able to describe the problem. great piece.

unrelated rant, but I'm still salty about it.

needed to send "raw" http requests instead of using their bloated sdk for reasons, and requests failed with "content-type: application/json" header, but succeeded with "content-type: application/x-amz-json-1.0". get out of here with that nonsense.
