I spent some time cleaning up my repo demonstrating how to use the NCBI Datasets REST API to do automated and/or bulk retrieval of genomes, by accession or by taxonomy. It's not super well documented but it does all seem to work :). Enjoy!

A couple of our recent outages/slowdowns are related to sites hammering Scryfall's API through rate limiting. Be a good steward of the free data endpoint and don't do this.
Insert 50 – 100 milliseconds of delay between the requests (i.e., 10 requests per second on average).

Did you just see the @scryfall.com slowness + emergency maintenance outage in the last two hours?
Five separate IPs received over 200,000 ignored API warnings (429: Too Many Requests). We had to block those addresses and perform database maintenance.
Do not ignore warnings.

Hot take. I think REST as an API model is bad.
The semantics of caching and side-effects are good, and the meta headers are useful, but the interface model of verbs on paths maps to nothing in programming languages and leads developers to writing endless boilerplate.
