What's the best way to read in a JSON file using Python? or How do I properly read in a JSON file wit

For quick debugging, I sometimes just print the json directly:

```python
print(open('data.json').read())
```

But yeah, `json.load()` is the proper way. Also, watch out for encoding issues—sometimes you need `open(..., encoding='utf-8')`.
