in python:

  - `import json` allows read/write.
  - easier to use than `import configparser`
  - allows writing vis-a-vis `import tomlib`
that's honestly why.

it did have the send_email tool on the left hand side though

the parent post is right, confidential compute is really what we've got.

I think most package systems are going to start, if not already, facing real supply chain attacks. The node ecosystem, from an attacker's lens, had quite a heavy leaning ratio of non-security conscious users which makes a better breeding ground for exploitation.
