Would like to start blogging a bit again after like 4 years (kids will do that), I have a few ideas but it turns out getting them down on paper is a skill that atrophies away

How I use Astral’s uv to manage my local development environments:
1. Install uv through homebrew, install Python versions through uv. Upgrade uv version to get access to new Python builds, do this frequently

Hi all 👋
Today i want to announce my latest dataset. I have used the bluesky api to scrape some really valuable data. This dataset really reflects the current state of the platform. 🤗
