You can use "uv run python script.py" to the same effect.

uvx is fine. I use it to run executable packages all the time. What is your problem with it?

As far as I understand, you don't. You open Claude Code inside the repo and prompt `boot llmunix` inside Claude Code. The CLAUDE.md file tells Claude how to respond to that.

You can't realistically keep training the same model forever, or it will start forgetting things it knew before. The proper name for this is "catastrophic forgetting".

Take a look at aider's watch mode. It seems like a bridge for code completion with more powerful models than Copilot. https://aider.chat/docs/usage/watch.html

That transformation makes writing both variants similar, but you still need to read `await (await fetch()).body()`, which IMO is much worse.

Claude Code will even request access documentation on its own sometimes. I caught it asking to run a `pydoc` command the other day. I'm not sure if it has access to web search, but it should.

My experience has been quite different. I often give it a large block of instructions and let it run autonomously for a while. When I come back it often did what I expected. It doesn't have good taste with respect to APIs, though, so s

Claude Code is "agentic". Aider isn't. It can plan, use external tools, run the compiler, tests, linters, etc. You can do some of it with Aider, too, but Claude is more independent. The downside is that it can get very expens

If you have strict static type checking, type errors can't creep in, so you don't need runtime checking. pyright (type checker) will tell you when a runtime check is redundant. For example, if you already have `var` annotated (or

I think it's fine to have those if it makes API design and better. In my mind, there's "code you should write" and there's "code only libraries should write".

beartype is great, but I only find it useful at the edges. Runtime checks aren't needed if you have strict typing throughout the project. On a gradually-typed codebase, you can use beartype (e.g. is_bearable) to ensure the data you&#x2

The current major type checkers, mypy and pyright, are also based on the same PEPs, but you can still see differences between them. For example, my codebase passes pyright in strict mode, but mypy results in a bunch of type errors. I'd

You still need to type-check files that weren't changed if they were affected by a file that was.

To be fair, pyright's performance as an LSP is tolerable. The main issue to me is running the type checker as a pre-commit hook or as part of CI. Mypy is awful, though.

If I understand correctly, you can do this with overloads. They don't change the function implementation, but you can type different combinations of parameters and return types.

The dataclass decorator isn't there to make the type checkers understand the class. Its main purpose is to automatically implement trivial methods like the constructor, equality, repr, etc. The type hints make this more convenient, but
