As @martin_kirch pointed out, the #uv project is working on adding its own #PEP517 builder.

This is just terrifying! Please consider joining me in raising concerns about it.

uv is a great tool! I do love it as a #Python package manager. But it is not very portable (even less portable than #RustLang in general, e.g. I'm still working on getting it fixed for PPC), and it is very heavy. And its popularity means that a lot of pure Python packages will now have a dependency on this non-pure, non-portable, heavy build backend that they don't really need.

This is going to be a true nightmare for downstreams. Just imagine me filing bugs, repeatedly asking people "please don't use this build backend, we can't build your package anymore because uv is non-portable!" And this will surely result in a lot of frustration, negativity, knee-jerk reactions and downstream patching just to keep things installable.

Un nuovo studio sui bambini che hanno vissuto la guerra a Gaza ha scoperto che il 96% di loro ritiene che la propria morte sia imminente e quasi la metà desidera morire a causa del trauma subito.
Una valutazione dei bisogni, condotta da una ONG con sede a Gaza sponsorizzata dall’ente benefico War Child Alliance, ha inoltre rilevato che il 92% dei bambini intervistati “non accettava la realtà”, il 79% soffriva di incubi e il 73% mostrava sintomi di aggressività. Gaza è uno dei posti più orribili.



Diario di un professore esausto

Sono esausto. Stanco e ammalato. Sarà burnout, non saprei. Sono talmente stanco che non mi va di leggere. Allucinante. A scuola tutti bene?Ni. A fine ottobre uno dei miei alunni ha pensato bene di tagliare le gomme della mia automobile, in rappresaglia alle prime due note che ho messo nella mia carriera da docente. Note disciplinari arrivate dopo due anni di pazienza, rimproveri, incitamenti, consigli.

It has been a fascinating experience learning Rust, GoLang, and Zig as someone who's never written a line of C code in my life. To me, these languages are so clumsy, unwieldy, verbose, and rudimentary - and yet, I can sense the specter of something _much_ worse lurking implicitly in the shadows, against which these decisions are a conscious reaction.

Srsly tho, the thought that you have to know the length of an array before you can create it. What.....the fuck? How are you supposed to do.....anything?

(I know there are ways around that, but each of those seem to come with their own "fun" challenges, too)

in reply to Jack Jackson

Vectors and Iterators mask most of the error prone array usage. At least in Rust.



Macron plaisante en privé des premiers pas désastreux de Bayrou, lui qui penchait pour nommer Roland Lescure ou Lecornu à Matignon: "Le président avait le choix entre quelqu'un qui était prêt et quelqu'un qui n'était pas prêt, il a choisi celui qui n'était pas prêt", ironise un familier de l'Elysée.

Terroristen i Magdeburg som dödade minst 5 och skadade fler än 200 är en man från Saudiarabien som fick asyl i Tyskland på grund av sin antimuslimska hållning. Han sympatiserar med det högerextrema partiet AfD samt hatar muslimer och vänstern.

Guten Morgen.

Heute kein Tässle, sondern Trauer. Bin in Gedanken bei den Opfern des Anschlags von #Magdeburg. tagesschau.de/inland/gesellsch…

in reply to Dr. Michael Blume

Kein guter Morgen. Ich hoffe, dass möglichst bald das Motiv gefunden wird. Zumindest lebt der Täter, was die Aufklärung erleichtern wird.
