I’ve been rewatching ReGenesis and you can sorta see a similar background to it (it being of the same vintage): bio attacks are the Big Bad, there’s actual mobilisation against viral spread, etc
kinda whiplash just how fucking rapidly the antivaxxer movement (and general anti-science) managed to spread and become popular in the years hence (and specifically circa the ~2016 mark)
and the other wild part is now this whole mess is only the one part mirroring it, there’s a whole other debt market thing that’s also replaying CDOs too. this one is more likely to be the fuse tho
yeah the dep resolution and instance management being snappy as hell are big reasons why people went for uv, but I suspect this will now get reevaluated (it should’ve been earlier)
pdm is what you want afaik btw, poetry is outclassed for a while now
(and to step on my pedestal for a moment: turns out “flat file” semantics for reasoning about and managing computer instructions is kinda fucking terrible, who knew?! (gods I wish we could have had some of the alternatives… worse is better is why they won out, but we could do so much better with modern compute capacity..))
why's that name familiar? calibre?
