I'll be brutal. I have been using Python pretty seriously for over 10 years (hard to come to terms with that) and never once have I had a use for this. That said I'm not making packages, I'm making barely distributed internal utilities or shell script replacements. Maybe this is helpful for others but I don't see how it helps me. Not everything has to, but that's the brutal truth.
- throwaway150 2y agoI'll be brutal. There is nothing brutal about what you said. It's just an ordinary fact that not all tools are going to be useful to everyone. Heck, I can bet that 90% of the tools that come on Show HN are not useful to you. They aren't useful to me either. The value of Show HN posts is in that many of these tools are useful to many, not that these tools aren't useful to some (which is really an obvious thing to say). So I don't understand what's "brutal" about what you said and why you even need to say something as obvious as this!
- Neywiny 2y agoIt's the high and mightiness of it. Want to share a thing? Sure. But to say it'll save me hours, not package creators or anything more specific, me personally will be saved hours of time, that's why I felt the need to say it.
