It probably depends, but for example in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia, between 1000 and 2000 bombs are found and defused each year. The last uncontrolled explosion was in 2014, killing one person.

I don't think this game is for me but still congrats on building something!

A quick side note: I kept getting notifications for unlocked achievements that I certainly did not fulfill the requirements for, e.g. "Play a whole season" after the second tournament or "Earn a million" after I had made maybe 50k.

Can you point to some aspects of the style that are typical of ChatGPT?

I have never done any story generation and after reading the first couple of paragraphs, I could not tell whether this was AI-generated or not.

The claim is not that they play about 33% of every game but that they completely finish about 33% of all games they play.

The thing about the anti-piracy is true, at least in the original version (I don't know about re-releases).

The way it worked was you had to offer at least a few pizzas that were reasonably close to recipes from the booklet in order to get any customers. Once you had that, you could get creative with custom recipes but if you only did custom recipes, you were bound to fail.

For us, the DX of uv for dependency management is much better than just using pip and requirements.txt.

To be clear though, we only use uv in the builder stage of our docker builds, there is no uv in the final image.

Kind of off topic but I don't understand the reading time. It says "7.8h 48m". What does that even mean?

Unobtanium was a thing in fiction long before Avatar.

I respect your ability to react to such a post in this way. All I could think was "What the fuck?!"

If you want to combine a mixin with a base class you have no control over, just put the base class last in the inheritance chain. Then it does not matter if it calls its super __init__.

This is actually covered by the --locked option that uv sync provides.

If you do `uv sync --locked` it will not succeed if the lock file does not exist or is out of date.

Edit: I slightly misread your comment. I strongly agree that having no lock file or a lockfile that does not match your specified dependencies is a case where a human should intervene. That's why I suggest you should always use the --locked option in your build.

Was there any particular reason you stopped making music?

I'm listening to one of your mixes right now and I'm wondering if you were influenced by Klangkarussell at all (or maybe the other way around?) or if that was just the general 2014 vibe.

Does he have a coherent position on anything?

I'm not sure I understand the sequence with the rhino. Is he actually killing the rhino by drilling a hole in its back and lighting a stick of dynamite inside the hole? Or am I reading this wrong? That seems pretty out there.

I would also say absolutely. We've been using pipenv for ~6 years and have managed to build a pretty good workflow around it. But uv is just _so much faster_. So we've started moving everything over to uv and I don't think we'll ever look back.

Migrating is not super hard, we wrote a small script that moves all the information from a Pipfile to a pyproject.toml and it works like a charm.
