say I have a python program that uploads a photo on Instagram. If I wished to use that program every day,
is there another way of doing so, other then the following (trivial) options?:
run it on your own every day (for ex. with an IDE)
set a timer that performs the operation daily, and run the program with a while(true) loop
the Instagram example is simply for the purpose of the discussion

Is there any way to kill a Thread?
(31 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I have a very simple thread in python:
threading.Thread(target=self.clock).start()
All I want to do is be able to delete the current one and make a new one (that will be set to 0 seconds), so it can start counting again, but no matter what I try I cannot stop the original thread from counting.
Unlike the processes that can be terminated, the thread will run until the function returns.
