# Start an infinite loop because True will always be TruewhileTrue:

pass
But essentially ignoring every single error a program could generate is not great. It’d be better to know what those errors are and fix/prevent them from occurring in the first place.
My secret to high uptime:
while True: try: main() except: pass
that was hilarious xD
Someone is absolutely going to think this is a real recommendation and do it.
Flask developer?
Lurking beginner here, why is this bad?
Basically sweeps errors under rug.
No error handling and go again.
There you go:
# Start an infinite loop because True will always be True while True: # try to run the main function, usually where everything happens try: main() # in the case an exception is raised in the main function simply discard (pass) and restart the loop except: pass
Thank you for that answer! That makes sense.
