It's Time For A Change: datetime.utcnow() Is Now Deprecated

Miguel Grinberg explains the deprecation of datetime.utcnow() and utcfromtimestamp() in Python 3.12, since they return naive datetime objects which cause all sorts of follow-on problems.

The replacement idiom is datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc)
