Temporarily bypass Windows Defender for improved WSL Python performance
# Getting terrible performance with Python in WSL?
#
# Putting a temporary exception in Windows Defender before running
# your load may speed things up
#
# I put this in a PS script so that I don't:
# - forget to put the exception in every time
# - forget to remove the exception when I'm finished
# - resort to disabling "Real-time protection" for a bit cuz I'm lazy
