Oh cool, now astral has made all my PyPI expertise obsolete, just like my conda and pip and mypy and black and flake8 expertise. Thanks guys 🙃
Today, we're announcing our first hosted infrastructure product: pyx, a Python-native package registry. We think of pyx as an optimized backend for uv: it’s a package registry, but it also solves problems that go beyond the scope of a traditional "package registry".

If you are considering writing an orchestration tool that must serialize all data to disk (or worse, remote storage) before passing it between each step, I beg you to reconsider your life choices
My number one tip for learning how to design better data analysis and modeling software? Spend a decade writing bad code, and then later having to refactor that code. I've found a lot of shortcuts to learn other data science skills but I've yet to find a way to truly short-circuit this one
You know, saying "you can either floss your teeth or get this needle stabbed into your shoulder" might actually get my kids to start flossing
HOW COOL IS THIS? Researchers have developed a DENTAL FLOSS that can DELIVER vaccines THROUGH the gums, a method that could one day offer a NEEDLE-FREE alternative for vaccination. This approach effectively stimulated immunity AND provided FULL protection against a lethal strain of influenza. 🧪🧵⬇️

There's the obvious "actually the space program had a ton of foreign-born contributors" and also the "some of those contributors were actual Nazis" responses here, but I just want to add that if you're at all interested in the space race I highly recommend the miniseries "From The Earth To The Moon"
Oh my god
“And so the Greeks send me this horse, we’re talking about one of the most beautiful horses you’ve ever seen. So big. So strong. Normally they keep this kind of horse for themselves but they were such big fans they said sir, please take our big wonderful horse we’ll even bring it to your house”
When I ask people how it's going and they respond "can't complain," to me that just means they're not trying hard enough

The position of the democratic party should be "you can return him now, or we will come get him when we are back in power, and drop you off at the Hague on the flight home."
Nayib Bukele is an enemy to the liberties of Americans and has behaved with contempt toward our laws and our courts. For as long as he lives, patriotic Americans should remember that about him -- and about his patron in the White House.
It’s been lost in the tariff news but the fact that the U.S. government can accuse you of a crime and send you to an El Salvadoran prison without trial, is legitimately scarier than the most hyperbolic claims of fascism made by the left during the election.
Thank f*cking Christ
NEW: The Supreme Court directs the Trump administration to "facilitate" the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from a prison in El Salvador, where he was sent due to an "administrative error." It also somewhat narrows the district court's order. No noted dissents. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
Kidnapping. Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping. Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking. A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.
stop calling things deportation just because they call it deportation. -You cannot legally deport people without due process. -You cannot legally deport citizens. -They are defining down deportation to break the law.
