re: ⚠️ i've been writing python for most of my time on earth ⚠️ 

@vaporeon_ @monorail @The_T normally in OOP, object instantiation logic is contained within a constructor, but Python decided to split the process into two steps:

1) __new__ is a function which returns the instantiated object,
2) __init__ is a function that receives the instantiated object and and initializes its state

It is very rare that a Python programmer ever use __new__. In 99% of cases, what you would put in a constructor in some other language is put in the __init__ method when you use Python.

You can override __new__, however, so that it returns anything you want. You typically do this when you subclass immutable types. Because, if you try to manipulate a subclassed immutable object in the __init__ function, well you can't. Because its immutable. So you have to override the creation of the object itself, typically by calling the superclass's constructor, in the __new__ method.
