Could you explain why it is such a deal-breaker in your opinion? It is a single `apt-get install` (which probably downloads less MBs than our typical `npm/yarn` install). Consider that if pyenv came pre-packaged for ubuntu/debian,

The only thing I never understood about conda, is why it does not support packages from pypi. I mean, the Python community has a standard repository for packages (pypi). You cannot even name a library $something if $something is not availab

Those are needed to compile different versions of Python with pyenv. Usually distributions bundle one or two specific versions of Python. Pyenv makes it super easy to install and use all the versions of Python that you want. Even though for

I do not understand, why we put emails in spam folders instead of rejecting them (as some providers do, e.g. mailbox.org, posteo.de). It may seem weird at first, but at least if something important would end up in Spam, the sender is going

Thanks for bringing this up. I remember reading something similar in a previous thread, but while making the donation I couldn't think of why it would be a reason not do donate anyway. If I could donate directly towards ff development,

Nice post, thanks for sharing. I currently use vcsh and myrepos and they work great for me. Now that I switched to Nixos maybe I could give home-manager a try. I wrote about my approach here in case you are interested ( https://g
