I have criticized your teaching style before, but this time I have to be honest this was very beginner friendly, well explained and broken down. Thanks for the effort and the valuable content. Cheers!

Dude, your content is top notch and bingeworthy. Thank you for all this great content you’re publishing. You’ve no idea how grateful I am to have found your channel. You’re one of the only non-sludge content producers, and that makes it so easy to watch.

This is great! Thanks for the awesome content.

Quick question, if we have a Google Cloud Run setup with Docker, what would be the way to store the cookies for reuse across requests?

Bro, I love your videos, all the ones you publish help me learn something new and improve every day, keep making the videos.
PS: You may be able to upload a Web Scrapping video for job searching on LinkedIn. If it's not too much trouble and again thank you very much.

I typically opt to just use browser profiles instead.. whenever there is any changes that i want to a browser, i just open it up, set some necessary adjustment _(logins, plugins, at etc)_ and then close it..

But it also partly because i'm lazy and don't wanna deal with making/saving and loading a cookies in codes🗿

Hey NeuralNine, Thanks for the great content!

In the code, you enter a website, retrieve cookies, and then re-enter the website to authenticate. But does that mimic the REAL user workflow? When I enter a website, I don't have to reload it to get authorized. I just enter the website, and I am ALREADY authorized. However, in the code, it seems like you're entering it twice, which isn't really what happens in real flow.

Or am I missing something?

This is very insightful and I've learned a lot in web scrapping. I hope in the future you could create a series about Natural language processing with different python libraries and frameworks while also including the regex library. It would be helpful in my Compiler Design and Intelligent Systems Class because I am having a hard time finding a syntax and semantic analysis with a program example on google and youtube for free.
