how about spinning up a wireguard server on udp/53 and connect to it with wireguard client. I haven't tried it myself but it could work. Gonna try it next time I am going to fly

if dns is allowed on the firewall, shouldn't you just be able to just use wireguard via udp/53, without fiddling with dns protocol itself?

I actually would love something like `pip generate-reqs` where pip goes through every .py file in my app and looks at whats being imported and writes these libraries to requirements.txt, together with all transitive dependencies from the cu

wouldn't `pip freeze > requirements.txt` solve your problem? It will list everything currently installed, including transitive dependencies at currently installed and working versions

By publishing module you refer to situation when a single module is reused across different applications? So if you dont have modules that used across apps, then you dont need to package and publish wheel? or if your modules are already ven

Can I ask you a question, what do you think is better approach: 1) publish packages as wheels or 2) publish apps as docker images (or docker-compose files or helm charts)? Why some People prefer 1 to 2? I think 2 is more “production friendl

Thats what pytest is for, it is important to have tests that cover your most important code paths so these these dynamic imports are ran. Due to dynamic natire of language, coding in python without strong test culture is masochism and full

I see a lot of package managers I never head of, am a happy venv & pip user. One of the key faults of pip is what happens when you decide to remove a dependency. Removing a dependency does not actually remove the sub-dependencies th

I am fine with subsidizing, but incentives should be aligned (like a per transit passenger or something). CP turns incentives upside down - the worse congestion - more $$$ goes to MTa this is absolutely bonkers.

I have a problem with this “can easily afford” logic. This is not true, and this is not how taxation should work. You are just justifying stealing money from blue collar by bogus “they can afford it” logic. A lot of NYC residents can easily

If a driver is replaced by a cab passenger it is 1-to-1 replacement of personal vehicle with taxi, no impact on congestion. If you see demand for cabs increasing + congestion pricing revenue of $1.5bln that means more traffic and more payin

Not true, you cannot simultaneously have lower congestion and higher demand for taxi. This is contradictory statement. In the end not much will change, people who would have takes transit will end up takin transit, people who have to drive

Manhattan residents are richer than outer boroughs. It is true, that some rich motorists will pay up congestion pricing, but they wont even notice these charges cause they are rich (so NO EFFECT whatsoever on actual congestion). In fact, th

I would be more comfortable with separating these two ideas: 1. If NYC wants to bailout MTA and fund capital projects - they should pay from general budget/taxes/fares directly 2. if NYC wants to reduce driving - they should

I am curious to learn your opinion: why not simply raise fares, tolls, and add additional tax on companies/payroll/property tax ? if transit is so beneficial for everyone, as CP advocates claim, people should be happy to pay up to

if prices don't move then you are basically stealing money from those who pay (delivery drivers, blue collar workers, contractors), who are not rich enough to live on Manhattan - to subsidize transit for affluent Manhattan residents

Agree, MTA must go bankrupt and restructure its liabilities, contracts, and overall cost structure to start from clean slate. Only after thorough and deep cleanup it would gain taxpayer trust and be on a get-well plan to be more sustainable

The private sector would ruthlessly fire people, cut and restructure costs. I see none of this happening. Airlines seem to have no problem fixing their finances and their bankruptcy arguably made them only better
