Those are two non-fiction books about American politics. Very different from Innworld...

Really enjoying this series, too. (wanderinginn.com) Amazing amount of output from the author, and while there's no way you can enjoy every plot thread (I just don't care for Flos), it's amazing how often I get excited when a new chapter starts from a new perspective.

Personally, I'm also working on "When the Clock Broke" https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/195790601-when-the-clock-broke and "This America of Ours" https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58311951-this-america-of-ours

Both are interesting reads, but "America" is definitely largely lighter material ..(wild, given it's about McCarthy-era politics)

Replace `pyenv` with `uv` - Franck Pommereau - Blog in c/[email protected]

I've enjoyed uv so far. Definitely snappy. And I appreciate that they stuck with pyproject.toml for config. It pulled in some nice stuff from pipenv (sync and update are clear commands that do expected things).

Quick complaint: I wish the python ecosystem hadn't landed on toml for package config. I've never liked toml config files; always found them confusing.

A weird nit for me...but isn't that what ellipses are for? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis

Depending on context, ellipsis can indicate an unfinished thought, a leading statement, a slight pause, an echoing voice, or a nervous or awkward silence.
