It is my understanding that the density of the universe billions of years ago was radically different from the one we now observe, and since density is intrinsically tied to our perception of space and time, wouldn't it make more sense that time actually stretches infinitely the further back we go, thus nullifying the concept of a beginning?
I guess I'm having a hard time with the idea that space-time could be discontinuous.
- pipenv install updates your lockfile on install exactly like how `npm install` updates the package-lock.json and requires additional flags to use the lockfile instead
- pipenv's dependency resolution is the slowest among all the tools in this space including poetry, pip-tools, hatch and so on
- pipenv has consistently failed to do its job to simply install dependencies because of issues like the one described in the article where it fails to resolve changes in hash simply because a new wheel was added for the platform
- Tons of longstanding bugs that fail to be resolved in any sort of timely manner like this one: https://github.com/pypa/pipenv/issues/2413
I am sick and tired of the python packaging space pushing this godawful tool for Python. Please just use pip-tools or poetry instead.
I say this as someone who has done an unfortunately large amount of work in the python packaging and python package distribution space and still get bitten every few months
I wonder what that financial calculus looks like between these options for a large organization:
1. trying to basically reinvent the workings of an entire programming language and migrate your Ruby apps to these new tools/runtimes/typecheckers/whatever
2. incrementally rewriting critical paths to something more performant (Go/Rust) & just throwing more servers at the Ruby stuff you haven't managed to replace yet.
This is not saying you shouldn't, it doesn't really matter to me. But I think a lot of the time this is driven by engineers who feel like they need to do this rather than a financial decision to save money
The big red flag here is that they didn't catch it for so long! How did they not notice?
Also that HTML!

Cars. Houses. AWS S3 space. Meta's VR headgear. Meat. Most of the toiletries and drugs CVS and Walgreens sell.
Other headsets are more difficult to buy yea but the meta one is very much available
