I wonder how this stacks up against asyncpg?
So this company has pretty much infinite money but they can’t get or make chips.
Huh. Don’t know what to make of that.

Off topics but it’s pretty interesting that Nile crocodiles are now in Florida.
They’re big and they eat people.
I may be a prude but it’s a real concern to me when people lie as part of their work/career.
If you were lying at the start of your career, you’re probably still lying now? Maybe?

It’s not about fixing things.
It’s about the fact that it’s ok for people to be very rich, as long as they pay their fair share.
If they don’t pay their fair share then there’s good reason to argue there shouldn’t be ultra wealthy people. Then they’re just exploitative leeches on society.
I find it really hard to understand why the rich don’t make it easier on themselves by being responsible members of society instead of relentlessly focusing on keeping poor people poor.
Pay some taxes, contribute to roads and schools and hospitals.
It wouldn’t matter, IF they paid some appropriate tax level. But they don’t. So it does matter.

Is there anyone at all who doesn’t feel extremely uncomfortable with this development?
