We’ve all seen it happen: some small screwup in the whitespace when
posting some Python code online turns the code into gibberish.

Here’s another example:
<https://www.tomshardware.com/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-pico/how-to-send-and-receive-bluesky-posts-with-a-raspberry-pi-pico-w>.
Luckily, this is a small mistake, and it should be easy to guess what
the correct code is.

(Actually, there might be a second mistake, though this one affects
the logic rather than the syntax.)

This is yet another reason why I like to put “#end” comments in my
code: they provide some extra redundancy, which makes it easier to
recover from mistakes like this.
