@codeDude not convinced by most of this. For a start the claim that #Ruby is better than #Python for functional programming is very weird. Yes, Ruby has proc objects — but all functions in Python can be treated like that anyway. (Whereas not all functions in Ruby can be easily treated like that, hence the pattern of passing a symbol to represent the name of the method to call.)
Actually on re-reading it’s just false: “A Python list, for example, doesn't have built-in, core library, facilities to map over its elements, filter them, etc.” Yes, it does.
And the talk about verbosity seems inconsistent to me. In some examples the author seems to prefer a very dense method-chaining style in Ruby which can be harder to read; it’s not clear to me that the Python example is more verbose in a bad way, it just takes up more lines with fewer things per line. And then they prefer “initialize” to “__init__”; seems very subjective as to which is better.
And in several cases (as with the quoted sentence above, and then talking about how Ruby blocks can be chained) it seems like they simply haven’t heard of list comprehensions in Python, which would achieve a lot of what they claim only Ruby can do.
(I work with Ruby professionally, but I think it’s hard to claim that it’s unambiguously better than Python.)

Anyone know of a way to search youtube via the command line or python and download the video and subtitles? This is for linux.
I want to try building something and should be script friendly so I can download videos en masse.
(It is for osint stuff)

Создание умных AI-агентов: полный курс по LangGraph от А до Я. Часть 2. Диалоговые агенты: память, сообщения и контекст
Во второй части курса по созданию ИИ-агентов превращаем безжизненные схемы в настоящих цифровых собеседников: подключаем нейросети к LangGraph, учим их запоминать контекст на сотни сообщений и гарантированно получать валидный JSON вместо творческой "болтовни". Создаем умные системы, которые сами определяют тип сообщения — отзыв это или вопрос — и автоматически направляют в нужную ветку обработки. Покажу, как объединить несколько нейросетей в одном графе, где каждая модель работает там, где сильнее всего. От простых диалогов до мультимодельных архитектур с интеллектуальной маршрутизацией.
