While we're at it let's get rid of coaches for sports teams and just allow the players to coach themselves

Monarchy is the best form if it's the right monarch and the worst if it isn't. Sounds about the same as CEO to me

RPATH is painless if you don't try to be clever

He was right. Python programmers are still the most likely to prioritize getting things done quickly.

1000% this. uv is trivially installable and is completely unrelated to installations of python.

Software has gotten so slow we've forgotten how fast computers are

The Wayland people were right about everything

A lot of commercial engineering and scientific software runs on windows.

Not amateurs, artists. Look at any modern art and you'll understand that looking like crap is kind of the point nowadays

Have you encountered modern art?

I don't understand why you think this is ironic

I think I have a killer app for normie use. Do you have technical experience with these?

If you say "Ben told Mary that he would work with Scott on Jeff's house on Tuesday, but that Amy preferred Wednesday", that sentence carries a lot of meaning for the speaker and listener because those "names" have meaning to both parties. Nobody would tolerate the descriptive alternative: "General Contracting Company Owner told General Contracting Company Secretary that he would work with General Contracting Company Hired Hand #4 on Customer #22's house on Tuesday but Customer #22 Spouse preferred Wednesday".

The average adult has a carefully curated understanding of the world based on a completely false narrative but nobody clutches their pearls about that

I'll email you over the weekend
