I've heard of people _experimenting_ with deleting their code every day.

I haven't heard of being content paying for a product consisting of markdown files. Though I could imagine people paying for agent skill files. But yet, the skills are not the same product as say, linear.

It's not linguistically correct for Nth to be used with a binary number, right? It's not like we would say 0b10nd, would we?

I mean, I get the intent with Debian's post, and I think it's fun! I'm more curious if there's other suffixes to use for this kind of thing when it's not base10

Do you? I think they're referring to these packages[0].

For me `nixpacks plan .` seems to generate a plain old pip (or poetry) install. The problem with the python packaging ecosystem is that since the start, in order to figure out which dependencies a package has, we needed to run arbitrary python code (setup.py). I can write a package in 5 minutes that declares its deps with `random.choice`. If you're installing from pypi.org, then there's no reproducibility guarantee. Though, I know nothing about Nix or how it works, so maybe you're changing pip's index-url somewhere else..
