But the ones who chose "No", the FBI coming for ya soon.

Now that I've got your attention. It's time to read about metaclasses.

Python Metaclasses.

The term metaprogramming refers to the potential for a program to have knowledge of or manipulate itself. Python supports a form of metaprogramming for classes called metaclasses.

Metaclasses are an esoteric OOP concept, lurking behind virtually all Python code. You are using them whether you are aware of it or not. For the most part, you don’t need to be aware of it. Most Python programmers rarely, if ever, have to think about metaclasses.

Security and Privacy Guide

This guide is a collection of techniques for improving the security and privacy of a modern Apple Macintosh computer ("MacBook") running a recent version of macOS (formerly known as "OS X").

This guide is targeted to power users who wish to adopt enterprise-standard security, but is also suitable for novice users with an interest in improving their privacy and security on a Mac.

A system is only as secure as its administrator is capable of making it. There is no one single technology, software, nor technique to guarantee perfect computer security; a modern operating system and computer is very complex, and requires numerous incremental changes to meaningfully improve one's security and privacy posture.

This guide is provided on an 'as is' basis without any warranties of any kind. Only you are responsible if you break anything or get in any sort of trouble by following this guide.

Refactoring.Guru makes it easy for you to discover everything you need to know about refactoring, design patterns, SOLID principles, and other smart programming topics.

This site shows you the big picture, how all these subjects intersect, work together, and are still relevant. I don’t pretend to be the inventor of these concepts—most of them were invented by others during the past 20 years. But I think that the connection between refactoring, patterns and general programming principles still remains a mystery for the majority of programmers. This is the problem I would like to solve here.

P.S Not an ad. I really enjoy this website.

Myths about /dev/urandom.

There are a few things about /dev/urandom and /dev/random that are repeated again and again. Still they are false.

These myths are not like the ones about the Theseus vs. Minotaur, but the article is quite interesting anyway.

Pyrogram is a modern, elegant and asynchronous MTProto API framework. It enables you to easily interact with the main Telegram API through a user account (custom client) or a bot identity (bot API alternative) using Python.

Key Features

- Ready: Install Pyrogram with pip and start building your applications right away.
- Easy: Makes the Telegram API simple and intuitive, while still allowing advanced usages.
- Elegant: Low-level details are abstracted and re-presented in a more convenient way.
- Fast: Boosted up by TgCrypto, a high-performance cryptography library written in C.
- Type-hinted: Types and methods are all type-hinted, enabling excellent editor support.
- Async: Fully asynchronous (also usable synchronously if wanted, for convenience).
- Powerful: Full access to Telegram's API to execute any official client action and more.
