@tillshadeisgone once your choice is between a fascist and a "centrist", your leverage is zero and your vote really counts for nothing.

@aral can it do apt uninstall/remove and pip uninstall/remove?

@strypey @trib @laura @aral @danhon

#WebScraping is becoming ever more popular in the #Humanities and #SocialSciences. I just revamped a presentation I held last week in which I gave a quick but somewhat realistic primer for web-scraping with #python and #BeautifulSoup, using the #EuropeanUnion's famous legal data-base EurLex as example.

Have a look, if you like: https://henning.deters.me/media/web-scraping-python.html

Corresponding notebook to follow along and try the code examples: https://www.kaggle.com/code/henningninneh/web-scraping-with-python-two-examples
