Uv is so good. I'm a curmudgeon about adopting new tooling, and tried uv with a lot of skepticism, but it was just better in every way. And even if it wasn't so polished and reliable, the raw speed makes it hard to go back to any other tool. Uv combined with type hints reaching critical mass in the Python ecosystem, and how solid PyLance is in VSCode, feels so good it has made me consider investing in Python as my pr…

The Python team needs not feel any pressure to change to compete, Python has already done quite well and found its niche.
I love uv. But the post starts with a simple install using a oneliner curl piping to sh, which is such a big attack surface area… I would much rather have a much longer one liner that increases safety.
What's the difference from going to the website and downloading it, or doing it through the package manager?

The whole point of an environment manager is set the environment so that the commands I run work. They need to run natively how they are supposed to when the environment is set, not put through a translation layer. Side rant: yes I get triggered whenever someone tells…
