Hi Guys, I am very new to python and am trying to learn python. I want to automate my email login through browser,in a way that when my computer boots up,it must be automatically logged into my mailbox. Please provide your suggestions on this :) Thanks Regards, Subin Alex. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
concurrent.futures vs gevent
Hi, It will be my first post here. I just found a great presentation here https://ep2012.europython.eu/conference/talks/concurrentfutures-is-here. As non native english, i can't fully understand all of the material presented there. I have some doubt, i hope someone here can give clarification. Could concurrent.futures be a (partly) replacement of gevent? I guess not, because gevent provide lightweight thread via greenlet, while concurrent.futures only provide multiprocessing across different processor) (not lightweight).
