Google reCAPTCHA v2 and v3 in React, Vue, or Angular, with one prop

Every time I add Google reCAPTCHA to a form I end up rewriting the same glue: load the script exactly once, register and clean up global callbacks, handle the token expiring, and remember that v2 and v3 work nothing alike.

Modelo de Dados Python - Parte 1

Read this article in English here. Se você já se perguntou por que alterar uma lista dentro de uma função muda a lista original, mas alterar um número não, você esbarrou em um dos conceitos mais fundamentais (e mais mal compreendidos) de Python: o modelo de dados da linguagem. Entender como Python representa, identifica e compara objetos não é só teoria: é o que evita bugs sutis relacionados a aliasing, comparações incorretas e efeitos colaterais inesperados em containers mutáveis.
