I'm Switching to Python and Actually Liking It

news.ycombinator.com César Soto Valero 2025-07-26 07:44:32

I started to code more in Python around 6 months ago. Why? Because of AI, obviously. It’s clear (to me) that big money opportunities are all over AI these days.

For example, this script scrapes metadata from all videos on my YouTube channel. The metadata is dumped as a JSON file that I use to nicely display statistics of the videos on this static page.
