Such an awesomely odd idea!

Is it a bug that client_id and secret are included in https://github.com/h313/spet/blob/master/spet.py?


Good catch! FWIW, they’re still in the git history. Should probably clean that up.


In a way it’s kind of similar to scripts on a distributed ledger


Um, can I get you to read my code? Haha


This is wonderfully cursed, I love it.


Would be even better if source control was integrated, a la Songs about Git:

Anyone came up with a good playlist name yet for a hello world?


main.sptfy


No examples / QuickStart (that I could find) really adds to the effect here, thanks for a laugh!


This is a headline from one of those ai-generated-hn-parody sites.


Executable stegnography.


Know of any other examples? I came across something using the Bible for that. Wish I remember.


so delisting a spotify track would break your botnet huh


Respect


Any song from RADWIMPS' album Your Name. prints the character at the pointer location.
