I think its typical that only one python runtime is installed in the system. What is the use case for bundling the runtime with the app?

This may seem like a good idea, but it gets problematic since you need to always use isinstance checks. Its actually discouraged to return union types by the mypy team: https://git…

ISO8601 is quite large, they probably don't want to ship that big standard library modules which would parse 100% of ISO8601

Scripts which generate the config also have their own problems. Check out Dhall, it attempts to solve this.

docker with pip-tools is great combination, you get deterministic builds easily

Why not just anonymize the data instead? Not using foreign key constraint just for the sake of GDPR sounds weird.

8x8 uses Jitsi for their video calls. Therefore funding Jitsi improves their paid service. I hope this clarifies it.

I dont think list comprehensions are used to improve performance. One reason to use them is to improve readability, as the execution doesnt jump around with continue/break etc.

You can use strict types and enforce that all types are correct during runtime. Check out mypy with "--no-any-expression" flag and Pydantic.

I get your point, but i think the main reason for using 80 character line length nowadays is that its more readable. Books use often line lenght of about 60 characters for this rea…

I recommend using mypy for python, type safe python has came a long way. The type annotation syntax has been in the language spec for years

Important part of STM is that the retry mechanism requires functions to be pure - which haskell compiler will check for you.
