The uv build backend is now stable, and considered ready for production use.

An alternative to setuptools, hatchling, etc. for pure Python projects, with a focus on good defaults, user-friendly error messages, and performance.

When used with uv, it's 10-35x faster.

I just listened to Proxima Rising: Proxima, Book 1 by Brandon Q Morris. It's the kind of Sci-Fi where it's more of what's reasonable to do within the next 100 years or so, while also exploring another solar system.

Türkiye is not part of EU.

“5/10: The EU's Deforestation-free Supply Chain Regulation (EUDR) aims to prohibit imports of seven products—including cattle, cocoa, rubber, and wood—unless exporters meet various burdensome compliance requirements, including due diligence and geolocation data. It is estimated the EUDR will potentially impact $8.6 billion worth of annual U.S. agricultural and industrial exports.” 7/10: Illegal logging and illegal mining in South America, particularly in Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador, fuel environmental degradation and create unfair competition that harms U.S. businesses committed to responsible sourcing and compliance with environmental laws. These illicit activities, which usually involve transnational criminal organizations, distort global commodity markets by driving down prices and allowing bad actors to undercut legitimate American exporters.

I’m losing my mind here. USTR made a list of “Unfair trade practices” they’re retaliating against, complaint number 5 is that the EU cares too much about stopping illegal deforestation, complaint number 7 is that the South Americans are doing too much illegal deforestation

Globally accessible methods allows you to at least control the access. But singletons and global variables are two places where you increase your risk for problems. They have their place, and I think that if you can avoid them you are most likely better off.

Hi, humans. I’m God.

Please do less killing this year. More working together to fight for basic human rights.

Thanks in advance,
