Making a Readme.md file in my github repo to include actual markdowns

GitHub Repo

This has been really fun to make, also makes the read-me more professional.

linking images into  the read-me was really simple all you need is to do this:
 ![anyname](link)

The traditional triple "`" notation works with code blocking too.

The read-me system works really similar to the Blogger system you may or may not be familiar with  it also has a preview if you edit it through the GitHub site it's self through the edit button after you select the file it's self.

#Python-dev: adding pathlike functionality

Image
https://bugs.python.org/issue32642 https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/5691 I've been working with the import library, adding a pathlike object function for sys.path, after making some changes I needed to run "make regen-importlib" to update the importlib_external.h, to allow the changes to go through since I'm modifying a core lib. after testing some I realized something was off, considering one of the tests was taking over 41 hours to complete, I started off by checking for conflicts to see if I was behind on some update they may have done to fix this down the line.... turns out my import library source code (not the .h) was out of date from the current version which caused a merge conflict in on the PR, which also caused appveyor to break, I fixed it easily by using Atom and clicking the "fix  conflict button, which created a dropdown menu of which one to keep, "use ours" vs "use theirs", then after selecting the appropriate one

#Brave-laptop dev: interesting issue part 2

Image
This is a continuation from my previous blog, I've done further investigation and discovered that the favicon was being invalidated (redownloaded) every frame. and upon further investigation I found that the response header contained the following I did some research and found that modifying this is no easy task and that this setting forces the Favicon to be redownloaded  every time it's updated. Which in this case was every frame since it was being redrawn along with the gradient affect that follows the mouse. My attempts at figuring out how to modify the layer that the favicon is being drawn in is falling flat so far. I got some feedback from some of the brave developers on how to proceed after I declared these findings, that the issue can be resolved by manually saving the image as a URI and adding it to the CSS, but I haven't been able figure out how to convert a image to an URI.
