Personally these and the Wikipedia posts are my favorite posts on here. News is cool, but there's a lot of cool things that don't change very often, and I love seeing those things too.

Also, in response to your "low effort posts do not invite meaningful discussion" from a different comment, I don't see how this is any lower effort than every other link only post (i.e. the vast majority)? And there's over 40 comments on this thread now talking about other scrapers, projects you can do with scrapers, better docs, tangential use cases and how to handle them, etc. Seems like a lot of people have a variety of things to say about this, I don't see how that's not "meaningful discussion".

EDIT: I also disagree with requiring a couple of sentences from the submitter. If they have something to say they can say it, otherwise it's fine if they don't try to influence the discussion - it's more interesting to see where the random commenters take something, then trying to chart a course.
