alt Hacker NewsNot surprised at all on this. I've been really suspicious about how hard `uv` was being pushed in 24/25.

"was being pushed" ... by whom? I think there's widespread grassroots support for it because it's a good tool.

Are you legitimately unable to tell the difference between something being “pushed” and people just legitimately liking and using something?
If you’re going to be a grump about everything, sometimes your broken clock is going to be right. It’s still not worth showing off.

Hey now, I was a completely organic shill! I worked for free!

uv and ruff are incredible tools for python development, and I've loved my time using ty. This acquisition is absolutely terrible.
I think the push has been entirely organic. Compared to existing tooling, uv is fantastically fast.
One of the bigger pain points I’ve faced in Python is dependency resolution. conda could take 30-60 minutes in some cases. uv took seconds.
A serious quality of life improvement.
