This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Manually data scraping, done with sweat and passion

What's the ratio of sweat to passion?

1 sweat to 2 passion

Probably the same ratio as unicorns to leprechauns.

Must be planning to stop with double digits. I can't respect someone who doesn't commit to leading zeroes.

If the concern is that the files would be out of order when displayed in a file browser, Windows File Explorer actually accounts for this by sorting the number parts of a file sequentially in the case of multiple files sharing the same prefix. E.g. "file_10.txt" will sort after "file_9.txt" and not in between "file_1.txt" and "file_2.txt" as you would expect from a naive alphabetical sorting.

I still use leading zeroes though. It looks a lot more pleasant when the file names are the same length.

Can confirm, we do have low self esteem sometimes.
