/tmp/scratch/var.py:2: DeprecationWarning: Bitwise inversion '~' on bool is deprecated and will be removed in Python 3.16. This returns the bitwise inversion of the underlying int object and is usually not what you expect from negating a bool. Use the 'not' operator for boolean negation or ~int(x) if you really want the bitwise inversion of the underlying int.

What's interesting is that there's a test for this:
Lines 68 to 71 in 42d03f3
eval("~True") is used instead of just ~True
$ python -c 'print(~True)'

$ python -c 'print(eval("~True"))'
