Session
One of the benefits of having a partner in (code) crime is developing a rapport and asking dangerous questions that lead to unfortunate code.
Follow along as we admit our sins, crack wise about the methods of our madness, and reveal some truly powerful (if probably inadvisable) ways you can make Python do your bidding.
From cursed struct implementations to abusing runtime type hinting for great power to bending the import system to its breaking point we'll try to amuse you while talking about what magic might be too much magic.
