This is garbage. `uv` is the best tool for the job in the Python ecosystem but it being developed and maintained by a startup (with no path to sustainable funding) this was basically inevitable.

People underestimate the bad position open source is in currently and how much of that space is annexed

@tante Python is cooked. Way too many slopcode enthusiasts in that space. Guess I'll find a new scripting language to try to enjoy coding in again. Lua?
@SharpCheddarGoblin Lua is on my list. Uv made Python fun for me but at what cost.
@tusharhero 👀
@tusharhero Actually since you bring that up, it reminds me that back in college I had a lot of fun with lisp and smalltalk, and I really ought to revisit those for fun again. This should be fun, right? This used to be fun.
@tante It's still maintained by a startup with no path to sustainable funding.
@tante Oh my. We use `bun` and `uv` at my workplace. It is so much better than pip+venv. They are probably mirroring Anthropic's move on `bun`.
@alanxoc3 @tante we still have poetry, at least?
@tante Phuh zum Glück bin ich so ein Late-adopter. Stand bis jetzt auf meiner Liste für: „eigentlich sollte ich mir das reinziehen das klingt cool“. Schade Schokolade.
@tante It will interesting to see if and how this will influence their values, in the short and long run: https://astral-sh.notion.site/Astral-s-Values-0ed6a642bcc84e91af6836b2373572f5
