ET.fromstring gives ParseError

I am trying to parse an xml string and I want just the PackageReference Include attribute details and the Version of it. When I say ET.fromstring(xml) it gives error like xml.etree.ElementTree.ParseError: not well-formed (invalid token): line 284, column 84. I verified if the xml is valid on multiple websites and there seems to be no issues with my xml and it is well formed. Please see my Edit below.

xml parse error

    import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
    
    thisDict={}
    
    def parseXMLInCsProj(xml):
      tree = ET.fromstring(xml)
      for packageReference in tree.findall('.//PackageReference'):
         if packageReference is None:
            continue
         if 'Include' in packageReference:
            key=packageReference.get('Include')
         child_item=packageReference.find('.//Version').text
         thisDict[key]=child_item

EDIT: As suggested I updated my xml string. Now I don't see the error. But as soon as the debugger comes to the line for packageReference in tree.findall('.//PackageReference'):, the program terminates. Please help.

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
