-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-Spawning from using this code elsewhere and not knowing why it's there.
-
-Based on this article and @reivilibre's experience mentioning
-`PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1`,
-
-> #### programming languages where the default “print” statement buffers
->
-> Also, here are a few programming language where the default print
-statement will buffer output when writing to a pipe, and some ways to
-disable buffering if you want:
->
-> - Python (disable with `python -u`, or `PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1`, or
-`sys.stdout.reconfigure(line_buffering=False)`, or `print(x,
-flush=True)`)
->
