we lived thousands of years fine without the FDA

For those thousands of years our only medicine was "ground up unicorn toe".

Right what we need is a requirements.yaml

It already exists, it's called pyproject.toml. It already existed for years in the form of setup.py. Requirements.txt means that projects can't be automatically installed which contributes massively to the difficulty of getting packages to work.

It may be a convention but in practice if you want to publish your package to Maven Central you need to prove ownership of your group ID domain. (Or ownership of your SCM account, which is in essence another domain).

Yarn 4.0 3 years ago

As an occasional Yarn user, this is how I learned there is even versions beyond 1.22.

I updated my system recently and KDE under X11 started stuttering all the time, especially when opening new windows (which made using IntelliJ unusable, for example). Switched to Wayland and it just works. That's all it really took for me to go from a "I don't care about Wayland" guy to "I am a Wayland truther" guy.

Similar story for Pipewire; Pulseaudio had crackles and Pipewire didn't. Such is the way of life.

ISO 8601 is prolific. Is RFC 3339 well used/adopted in any system?

90% of the time when a library says ISO 8601 it doesn't actually implement the more esoteric parts of ISO 8601.

Separately, if just going for concurrency for i/o, async/await is pretty amazing:

That's not async or concurrent. You're running a synchronous function in an asynchronous task which cancels out.
