The entire software department at work was fired yesterday. I had already quit and today is my last day. While I already have a new position starting next week, the rest of the department is looking. There are QA, frontend ( ), and backend ( ) engineers, technical writer and software compliance specialists, UI/UX designers, SREs, our manager. If you're in or on-site, I'd love to forward contact details.

    uv also provides a command "uvx", which is an alias for "uv tool run". You can use this to run tools like the ruff formatter/linter.

    But note that tools installed using uvx do not have access to the dependencies of your project. They are run in a separate environment with only their own dependencies installed. So for things that need to import the project's dependencies, such as pytest or mypy, you will need to use "uv run ..." instead of uvx.

      There was a time when I wrote Scala function names in Telugu, because it allowed full Unicode support.

      Felienne Hermans, a professor from Netherlands implemented a subset of in various natural languages for teaching programming to 12 year-old children. It's called Hedy.

      I think it's a great step in the direction of decolonializing computer programming.

      Does computer programming have colonial values baked in? It's not something we give much though to. 🤔

        For my latest (personal) Python project, I'm using:
        • uv for package management
        • pytest
        • ruff for linting and formatting

          Using Python uv tool as a replacement for Poetry for a small Python utility I'm writing. It feels a lot like Rust's Cargo.

          All that I can say for now is that it is certainly a better experience than setting up a virtualenv manually.

          I am writing this proprietary tool for a team of JavaScript developers. I think they will feel that it is just as easy to use as npm/yarn or whatever is the new hotness this week.
