<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mcc" class="u-url mention">@<span>mcc</span></a></span> I somewhat disagree about uv, mostly because of the difficulty of bootstrapping Python in the first place. Conda solves that by having a single "blessed" virtualenv used only to bootstrap other virtualenvs, but that goes horribly sideways once one-off packages get installed into that base environment. Having a small statically linked executable in place of that base environment can cut a lot of dependency loops.</p>
