jsonista 1.0.0 was released a few days ago. It's a JSON serialization library for Clojure and I created the initial version way back. Great to see it reach the big version milestone 🙂

Always wear a helmet when climbing, you never know when a sausage is going to fall from the sky!!
We were standing there at the bottom of the crag when there was a thud. A sausage had appeared on the ground. Where did it come from? Were the teenagers making a fire at the top of the cliff trying feed the uncs? Did a crow steal it from them and drop it? We don't know

since I see a lot of gloom re Astral x OpenAI:

⁃ Even if Astral actively (malice) or passively (neglect) ruins uv, Python packaging is 1000x better today than 2 yrs ago.
⁃ Ruff is nice but only nice to have—ty is barely usable. We'll be fine if they vanish today.
⁃ Channelling Buddhism: it’s OK when things change or go away! Expecting things to last forever is an unnecessary source of suffering. But, worst case is that we get the community-maintained pkg mgr you always wanted!

Chill, y’all 🧘
