uv (docs.astral.sh/uv) + hermit (github.com/cashapp/hermit) i think is the ultimate combo for python versioning.

No issues versioning system deps (hermit handles downloading uv at a pinned dep) nor python versions (uv handles python version pinning)

It's scary to see some people's timeline on Twitter... It's plagued by misinformation. Saying that social networks don't impact election results or people's behavior is quite short-sighted.

Is it the only reason? No. Is it likely a great contributor to radicalization of people? Yes

Again for the people on the back: freedom of speech is not the same as freedom of reach or freedom of consequences. Expecting a working system without moderation/consequences n is not sustainable

Finished binge watching Ted Lasso after a couple weeks... Probably one of the most wholesome series I've watched in recent years. Tackles really important aspects of it what the human experience is in a comedy show around football.

The thing I like about here is it answers the: "What's happening" question again

Reading the Dune books... Realizing that some of the later books are too contemporary with what's happening sometimes its scary...

Some recommended feeds I've been using:

bsky.app/profile/did:...

Surprisingly good for reading posts from people who are not constantly posting

It's interesting bc now all last for me Twitter looks like mostly clickbait tweets with occasional tweets from people still there...

Probably related to me not opening too often tbh, cold start issue?

It's sad though as this likely means the old models tackling that are gone or have deteriorated.
Going on Twitter now feels unmistakably like watching Uncut Gems.

Chesterton’s Fence: A Lesson in Thinking
A core component of making great decisions is understanding previous decisions. If we don’t understand how we got “here,” we run the risk of making things much worse.
