Hi! That's awesome to hear, and very aligned with the devx we're going for. How was your system received?

In fact we totally agree and are not cloudpickling the function because of the package minor version issues. We sync over the code to the destination environment and the server imports it fresh, which is much more robust. The one piece of code that cloudpickles functions is a trap door for certain weird situations, but frankly we haven't had to use it in months.

Our system was super well received minus the stability issues. I think the UX of being able to "ship" code like this is a big leap over the alternatives - it actually gives me a lot of confidence in the approach seeing that someone else had a similar thought.

Very interesting about the implementation. I admittedly did not read that closely and clearly did not grok the what the actual hot path was there, will check it out more. May have to borrow your approach or perhaps just adopt this wholesale :) Regardless, super cool project, will be following.

Excellent! Don't hesitate to reach out (donny at run dot house) if you want to chat about adopting our approach or using Runhouse.
