They don't want tools like uv to have to parse Python, which is complex and constantly changes. See also https://peps.python.org/pep-0723/#why-not-infer-the-requirem...

Not convinced. You'll have to prove that this impromptu reading out loud experiment indeed tests the agility to parse a text. I believe you won't succeed because I think it's wrong. I also believe this potato and recipe conve

OP said "I do worry about my data with them", it seems to be the best they could do to try resolve this would be to delete the data. But indeed, that's me thinking that you should care a lot more about your privacy and the pr

> Homomorphic encryption, presumably? That would not be very comforting, this would mean that even encrypted, we can know stuff from the encrypted form, which kinds of defeat the purpose unless I'm missing something.

In what you show, people encrypt their genome before uploading data on some server, and then scientists can work on the data. How are scientists able to work on encrypted genomes?

I kind of understand your point, now my view would be that it should not be a reason not to delete the data from them, in case it actually helps. Otherwise: 1. Why take the chance? 2. Your DNA being out in the wild also impacts the privacy

Enlighten me. To me, GP's point is that people aren't capable of reading. They illustrate this point with an experiment. I'm convinced the experiment doesn't prove their point and that's what I have spent time on.
