It's that time of the week again. So wonderful devs, what did you learn this week? It could be programming tips, career advice etc.

Summarize a concept that is new to you.

And remember, if something you learnt was a big win for you, then you know where to drop it as well.👇👇🏻👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾👇🏿

I've learned that:

import requests


response = requests.get(url, timeout=None)

doesn't have the same meaning as:

import httpx


response = httpx.get(url, timeout=None)

If you want the same behavior with httpx than the requests code, you need to do the following:

import httpx


timeout = httpx.Timeout(connect_timeout=None, read_timeout=None, write_timeout=None)
response = httpx.get(url, timeout=timeout)

I learned some basics about webdesign theory and redesigned my portfolio (biehler-josef.de). The only thing that is missing yet, is optimizations for mobile phones. But I think, that is something I can do next week :-)
