- zanie 10mo agoRuff wasn't named after the bird, we just think it's funny that Charlie didn't know it was a bird. He made up the word :)
- collinmanderson 10mo agoI've always assumed it was something like: ruff - "RUst Formatter". ty - "TYpe checker" uv - "Unified python packaging Versioner"? or "UniVersal python packaging"
- BiteCode_dev 10mo agoAlso note that R, U and T are one letter away to spell Rust.
- benrutter 10mo agoAh, thanks for demystifying!
