Very cool! Was it difficult to get Bitrig approved on the App Store? If I had to guess just based on the idea, it seems like the sort of thing Apple would take issue with.

shebang mode is also incredibly useful and allows execution like ./script.sh

  #!/usr/bin/env -S uv run --script
  # /// script
  # dependencies = [
  #   "requests<3",
  #   "rich",
  # ]
  # ///
  import requests, rich
  # ... script goes here

I really love this and I've been using it a lot. The one thing I'm unsure about is the best way to get my LSP working with inline dependencies.

Usually, when I use uv along with a pyproject.toml, I'll activate the venv before starting neovim, and then my LSP (basedpyright) is aware of the dependencies and it all just works. But with inline dependencies, I'm not sure what the best way to do this is.

I usually end up just manually creating a venv with the dependencies so I can edit inside of it, but then I run the script using the shebang/inline dependencies when I'm done developing it.

No mention of XSLT? Feels like it would be highly relevant since many folks have not considered transforming or styling XML since those days, and would be interested in understanding the huge leap from that to this.

And given Jon Udell has written about XSLT before[0], I'm sure this was an intentional decision. Not sure I understand it though.

My first exposure to XSLT was sketchers.com: https://thedailywtf.com/articles/Sketchy-Skecherscom

Sadly it doesn't seem like they're using it anymore.

That's a manageable risk if you buy from the small handful of reputable companies that do heavy metal testing like Life Extension or Natural Factors, who publish their COAs and have brand equity to protect.

The less manageable risk is the liver issue. The HLA-B*35:01 gene significantly increases the probability of it happening, and this gene can be screened for in theory. Periodic liver testing might be another way to manage the risk, to catch it before it's symptomatic.

Unless you buy on Amazon, in which case products from reputable brands are co-mingled with third-party FBA sellers' inventory, which may include counterfeits.

Is this by chance inspired by the one handed keyboard from Children of Men?

One of my favorite scenes, by the way.

They’re good enough for gaming, don’t expect to do much coding.

They are very good for your neck, though.

Are there any glasses/headsets out there that are good for coding yet? The idea of working on the go with VR glasses is very appealing to me.
