Hey #python experts, what’s the best way to make a single binary on Linux for Linux that I can deploy safely without needing a container? Is it PyInstaller? Nuitka? Bazel? Thanks!

My daughter has started to watch My Little Pony and I have some hard questions.

• Is Spike, the baby dinosaur, an indentured servant? He seems to not know who his parents are. Is he free to leave?

• Are the cutie marks caste marks? Like if a pony gets a bad cutie mark(manual labor), can they ignore it? Or are they like bound to that profession?

• Does their monarchy top out at princess? It seems like you get promoted to princess and then that’s as high as it goes.

• Is Princess Celestia a god? She appears to be immortal yet is often defeated.

• How old are these ponies? We see baby ponies, younger ponies, then older ponies. Are they supposed to be like teenagers? Adults? They live alone in their own houses and seem to run businesses.

I like how this article about why Austin didn't end up being the second tech hub skips the laws discriminating against women in the form of anti-abortion laws. Like 50% of potential employees were risking their lives in moving to the state, but maybe it was the power outage that did it in.

One thing I love about working in #denmark is their complete respect for personal privacy. You could come in with blood soaked clothes and a shovel and they’d be like “good weekend?”

Nothing like having a beautiful day ruined by Slack deciding they're going to opt every customer into training their LLM unless you send their customer service an email. I'm so mad at how scummy this is. Now I need to warn effectively every non-technical person I know that they need to send an email (not in the client cause Slack knows people might actually use that).

My daughter on the bike ride to Danish daycare after waking up at 5:45: “I don’t want to 🎶 I don’t want to! I don’t want TO 🎶”

Tried watching HBO's Euphoria TV series.

I may be getting too old but this is so unwatchable. Apart from one or two characters, everyone in the series is deplorable sick person, no one is even remotely likeable nor interesting. Everything in their lives is shit.

I’m sure there’s a reason but I don’t understand why #apple released the new iPads now. Why not hold them until #wwdc? It just seems weird since every review is “the hardware is great but iPadOS is bad”.
