Your Courses on Udemy are great. And in every video here you are able to make sense and densify high-level knowledge that otherwise it is very sparse and not so easy to retrieve, your experience sparks over every topic. Thank You for keep sharing.

You're very welcome!

Hi sir, Please make a video about AI Controversy

[@mathbyteacademy]

I try to stick to fact based videos, not opinions (unless it's Pythonic styles :-) )

Thank you for the video. Great quality as always. I have a question related to this topic: Do you think it is a good idea to use a Python file (config.py) for configurations on a Python project or is it better to use a YAML file? I'm not sure about the advantages of this approach.

[@mathbyteacademy]

You can certainly do this. The main reason I usually end up using yaml files is that these files are often accessed and manipulated by external processes (such as might occur in a CI/CD pipeline where the yaml is modified based on the production environment) which may not be able to read/modify Python files.
