Great! Hadn’t seen that initially.

That’s what I adore about truly open source projects such as Python, but also Linux or Rust, for example. They’re not polished products of faceless corporations. They have rough edges, as everything does, and that’s okay.

And time and again some human spirit shines through, like it does here. A welcome reminder we’re all in this together, and that next quarter’s shareholder revenue is genuinely meaningless in the bigger picture.

Most corporation products are absolutely horrible comparing to Python, the polished ones you know of are few exceptions. I've seen a few internal programming languages and anything publicly known is ... at least usable.
