For Python's uv, I think the closest thing to a cooldown is something like: uv lock --exclude-newer $(date --iso -d "24 hours ago") uv is considering a native relative date: https://github.com/astral-

Sorry, you're right I should have said "plain venv", as in the program. `uv run` will also sync the environment to be sure it exists and meets the correct specifications. But yes, it's optional. You can also just do `uv

I agree that the speed improvements are inexplicable, as in I can't convince you in writing. "uv is fast!!!" doesn't do it justice. You kinda just have to experience it for yourself. If you haven't spent 5 minutes t

uv is finally an all-in-one tool that finally takes all of the good ideas from previous projects and combines them together to work well as one (and unbelievably fast). The fact that it's a binary, not written in python, also simplifie
