Trending Topics/ Web Scraping

Leave a reply

We are launching a new column: Trending Topics, which garner significant attention in internet searches lately. 

Web Scraping
The process of extracting data from websites, either manually or automatically using bots or web crawlers. Web scraping techniques include HTML parsing, DOM parsing, XPath, and API interactions, with tools like BeautifulSoup, Scrapy, Selenium, and Puppeteer commonly used. It is particularly useful for tasks such as price monitoring, market research, and content aggregation, benefiting businesses and researchers who need large-scale data collection.

Linchpin  – a person or thing that is the most important part of an organization, a plan, etc., because everything else depends on them or it.

What/Who is the linchpin of your activity?

 

The linchpin of happiness = a new spring?

A Moonlight with a Lighthouse, Coast of Tuscany.

What is the light without a moon

And the moon without the light?

The light is what we crave

But moon is what we see.

Engleza de septembrie/ Whet

Leave a reply

Whet = to increase your desire for or interest in something.

“Feur had remained curiously unassimilated; she continued to whet the curiosity of lady Alison…” John Galsworthy, A Modern Comedy.

Autumn whets the illusion of permanence.

Nevertheless, the wind in the yellow air is playing a tune: You are no colonists of this world. You are just passing through… As boats dwindling into sunset glares…

Stack sandal

As it is still the empire of summer and sun, I come up today with another fashionable word:

Stack sandal –  a type of sandal with high heels and a platform under the toes.

The picture is from my small, small garden. In August I do have a garden of lilies.

August Lily

I bid you a wonderful evening in your garden of lilies!

Engleza de joi/Flummoxed

2 Replies

Every Thursday comes with a new word.

Only that lately, every Thursday has come in surreptitious* mornings as a scorcher. I am flummoxed.

Flummoxed = confused, so that you do not know what to say or do.

Flummox is also a verb = to confuse somebody so that they do not know what to say or do (not being used in the progressive).

*surreptitious = done secretly or quickly, in the hope that other people will not notice.

As optimism is in the air, let’s feel refreshed by looking at this:

We are all

Fireflies night

We are all fighters in trenches
and bleeders on battlefields.

We are all thinkers
of simplicities and beauties.

We are all carriers
of hopes and smiles.

We are all dreamers
of strange countries
full of secrets and dreams.

We are all lovers
of love and lust.

We are all yearners
for colours and truths.

We are all travelers
amidst unruffled nights
and shimmering fireflies.

We are all…
