I didn't notice that - can you give some examples?

But once you have a lock file there is no resolution needed, is there? It lists all needed libs and their versions. Given how toml is written, I imagine you can read it incrementally - once a lib section is parsed, you can download it in pa

Some religious people play their kind persona at church, to excuse the unkind persona in other situations.

Yeah uvx gets abused out of its convenience. uv has many useful features like dev dependencies and inline dependencies, that are much more reliable than uvx. One tip for in-line dependencies: set a max date to lock your packages - reliable

But they named companies that are not Chinese eg Samsung. I think the claims are well spirited and the China argument is an aggravating factor for many, so no harm in having it. Will likely lead to higher interest in the case, so that&#x2

There's a python course in plursight that I loved, it's quite the deep dive into the language and I learned a lot. One day I was looking for it and couldn't find it - turns out it was archived and ranking much lower in search

I'm concerned about the original quote which has a very weak sentiment. "it feels off-mission". Not something strong like "I'm completely against it" or "we'll never do that". Even better would

On the site itself: it's great that this was produced in 1h with 60$. This is amazing to create small utilities, explore your curiosity, etc. But the site is also quite confusing and messy. OK for a vibe coded experiment, sure, but wou

I fully agree. It's great for prototypes reactors, sometimes debugging (I'm kinda annoyed at how googling seems less and less efficient nowadays), and also reviewing. But you gotta be critical about it. It's like a junior as

Any website can have a button to reject all cookies. Or if you use only functional cookies, you don't even need it! Websites could come together to make it a standard and enable a browser option to avoid bugging you. Guess what: they

I'd say more likely, their UK presence. There's an increasing gap between UK and the rest of Europe, wider than other non-EU members such as Switzerland. I see Switzerland as a country that wants complete independence, but sees va

It's often a mistake to think that companies are these perfect union of ultra rational agents, just because they have a lot of employees and money. See: Windows 8, Windows Phone.

Things uv does better by pip by default: - really hard to install a package globally by accident (pip: forgetting to activate venv) - really easy to distinguish de and main dependencies (pip: create different files for different groups and

If you have multiple python applications with different versions, it's nice to use the same version as deployed. At least major and minor, patch is rarely needed for python.

I also recommend the flag for a max release date for $current_date - that basically locks all package versions to that date without a verbose lock file! (sadly, uv cannot detect the release date of some packages. I'm looking at you, ya

This is way less than what uv and other package managers do: - dev dependencies (or other groups) - distinguishing between direct and indirect dependencies (useful if you want to cut some fat from a project) - dependencies with optional ext

That's hyperbolic. You had high profile celebrities advertising NFTs, and stuff valued at millions, that's a whole other scale. Skins have their place when they're modestly priced, as they also have quite a modest impact. But

And AWS has agreements with services with similar services, eg MongoDB. Maybe elasticsearch asked for too much money, or AWS didn't want to pay out of principle.

I tried to program flappy bird on that, back then the delay on Android made it impossible, as you need quick feedback. Scoping it down and making a side scroller where the characters runs on the floor and only has to jump iver obstacles mad

A touchscreen Mac would compete with iPads so that's a no no. For the foldable phone, it may just have to do with aesthetics.

I agree they aren't building great user products anymore but gemini is solid (maybe because it's more an engineering/data achievement than a ux thing? the user controls are basically a chat window). I asked for a deep researc

Cool tech, wrong company. The tech is impressive, but people are already getting concerned about excessive screen time via zombie doomscrolling. Moving it from the pocket to literally in people's face will only worsen it. And by Meta o

Agreed with first sentence ( and only). That's why the state must legislate and fiscalize rules that benefit the population. I don't even condemn businesses (too much). For a single business to be more eco friendly it must raise c

That's a bit pedantic: lots of python programs will work the same way in major OSs. If they don't, someone will likely try to debug the specific error and fix it. But LLMs frequently hallucinate in non deterministic ways. Also, it

I mean, this sounds like survivor bias in action? Google also bought Motorola for 12 billion and Microsoft bought Nokia for 7 billion. Those weren't success cases. Or more similarly, WeWork got 12B from investor and isn't doing we

I don't think it's ironic: maybe it's not intuitive / not easy to do! But there's utility in talking about it. If you teach people that good engineers prepare for Google scale, they will lean towards that. If you t

As a fan of the early seasons, I get lots of suggestions for Got clips. I assume that's done by the author to get around copy right blocks. Quite often they also add music, which would make it easier to get around sound detection. I ha

Late to the party, but thanks to the author for this: I learned a lot from this article, although I have mixed feelings about it. The good: cool to know more about the agents loops, different types of LLMs, ideas for prompting. I definitely
