Wasm + wasi let you define hard boundaries between components with explicit interfaces, might be loosely along these lines?

How does Pyoxidizer compare to pyinstaller and nuitka?

I hold the opposite perspective, to me personally, the USB-C feels objectively better.

I own phones with both connectors and I've hit issues with two lightning cables over the last ~6 years where dropping the cable onto something metallic shorts out a couple of the connectors rendering the cable useless. Thus far I've not managed to do similar with USB-C.

Both cables ultimately wind up being replaced after fatiguing to failure in roughly comparable time IME.

Both adapters are pleasant to use compared to predecessors, but USB-C I can share between devices, so the 100W laptop charger will happily charge my phone etc which I find quite convenient.

I'm curious what you find preferable about the lightning adapter?

I wonder why they haven't setup a pyinstaller build for consumers that just want to use it? Making people have python and faff with virtual environments feels an odd choice...

Would be nice to see a nix flake etc for tinkerers as well...

Nowadays, things like Treesitter can provide comprehensive semantic syntax for many languages, along with surprisingly elegant ways to run custom queries that might let you do some of the things listed here, with a consistent interface across multiple languages.

Cool ideas!

This. It's why things like Cloud Development Kit and Pulumi are quite interesting to me.

I cry my eyes out at those episodes every time I see them, wonderfully written episodes! (I find all the Bluey episodes are).

Try `--only-binary :all:` to force pip to ignore sdist packages, might help avoid those slow compilations.

I've not tried it with AI projects, but pyinstaller does a usually pretty solid job of packing up most python projects, and it's pretty simple to get started with.

Feels like an odd move but whatever.

Does anyone here have a good suggestion for an SMS app for Android?
