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 🧘

In France, we don't say "vibe-coded contribution" but "merde request" and I think it's beautiful 💩

An interesting coincidence how @willmcgugan’s weight loss blog post comes just 2 weeks after my own! Clearly, it’s a topic on people’s minds. My account involves no injections, so you can treat it as an alternative approach.

Losing weight is easy, I've done it lots of times! - Łukasz Langa

Wait, what? Yeah, I’ve done a few big diet runs in the past and regained lost weight, and then some. This April I started again, but did it better. I lost 19 kilograms in four months. I reached that point in late August, but wanted to give it at least two months before declaring victory publicly. Now I can tell you: the weight stayed down over conferences, vacation, holidays, and birthday parties. This looks sustainable. Let’s talk about it.

We're dropping 3.9 support on our Python samples, which means we get to upgrade lots of syntax, like:
Optional[X] → X | None
Union[X, Y] → X | Y

Thanks to the "UP" option in ruff for finding everything that can be upgraded!
