Here you attempt to call ‘bytes’, which (as the error says) is not
callable.
You should choose names which are not already bound::
in_file = open('data.bin', 'rb')
in_file_content = in_file.read()
records = [bytes([char] * 8) for char in in_file_content]
When choosing names, try to communicate the *purpose* of the value, its
semantic meaning. The type should be of secondary importance, and almost
always should not be part of the name.
