    I don't see any meaningful speedup. The 10x claims are not reproducible. He's also comparing it to the much older style of requirements.txt projects and not a poetry project with a…

    The 10x performance wasn't mentioned in the article at all except the title. I watched the video and he does mention it going from 30s to 3s when switching from a requirements.txt …

    Correct. There better be a damn good reason to add another language to the ecosystem other than it's that particular developer's new favorite language. Is there anything being done…

    Yes, it's a mess (New: now with Rust!)

    I am totally against Python tooling being written in a language other than Python. I get that C extensions exist and for the most part Python is synonymous with CPython. I think 2 …

    I was talking more about you using HexChat with your preferred username "FooBar", but then when on Tor you want to be "SpamEggs". If you launch HexChat through oniux and it reads y…

    They use hexchat as an example but do these processes run with the users configuration? Wouldn't this leak IRC usernames if you forget to change it. ... Or leak cookies if you laun…

    I personally hate how all these platforms like GitHub, GitLab, BitBucket, etc slapped a centralized relational database to manage issues, comments, merge requests, etc next to a di…

    4k gaming is dumb. I watched a LTT video that came out today where Linus said he primarily uses gaming monitors and doesn't mess with 4k.

    R2 in only "free" until it isn't. Cloudflare hasn't got a lot of good press recently. Not something I'd wanna build my business around.

    so it take 3 seconds to run instead of 0.3? Don't get me wrong, that's a huge improvement but in my opinion not worth switching languages over Features should be developed and test…

    Why Rust? Aren't you alienating Python devs from working on it? I see that UV is bragging about being 10-100x faster than pip. In my experience the time spent in dependency resolut…
