Two weeks with uv
Two weeks after switching from Poetry to UV, I’m fully sold. UV has streamlined my workflow, resolved issues like XKCD #1987, and made managing Python projects easier. While some quirks exist, they don’t affect me. With Astral now supporting PyPI publishing, UV has become my go-to tool for Python development.

My (ideal) uv based Dockerfile
After switching to uv last week, I had to update my default Dockerfile, drawing insights from articles by Hynek and Michael on building production-ready containers with uv. My new setup uses a 4-stage Dockerfile, incorporating uv sync, multi-stage builds, and full support for my Django projects. While not perfect, it’s proving highly effective for a…

UV — I am (somewhat) sold
In this post, I talk about how my initial doubts about using UV for Python projects completely changed after giving it another shot.

Last week I forgot to write week notes completely. This week I felt the strong urge to skip them by intention. But I want to keep up with my goals. Even if I write something short. Currently, live is like a very fast rollercoaster. Everything is safe. But it is moving at almost insane speed.…

📔 Week Notes for Week 20: Where has the week gone?
The second week of our holiday was over sooner than I realised. I was out with a good friend, I have a new general practitioner and I switched to chromium. Oh, and I used our new plancha grill for the first time. A great tool for burgers, vegetables, and fish. But I have to sharpen…

Ungoogled-Chromium it is?
The search for a slim, fast and modern browser might have come to an end. Ungoogled-chromium feels just like what I want. Even better than Vivaldi. But the setup process is a bit more nerdy.

📔 Week Notes for Week 19: Kiss the Frog
The first week of vacation is almost over, and I already feel way less stressed and worn out than in the last few weeks. Had some quality time with my wife working in our garden, went on a short hiking tour to visit the “kiss the frog” spot, met with friends to celebrate my wife’s…

Modding Vivaldi
On my way to have a super slick UI, I removed some of the address bar buttons, that I don’t use. It is tricky, but doable.
