We ended up selling that startup to EDB (not because of the Poetry hack), which means that they now own this IP. And, since then, Python packaging has advanced, with uv taking the world by storm.

Run uv run main.py r

How Let's Encrypt made the internet safer and HTTPS standard - and free

KTSDESIGN/Getty Images In 1996, I registered my first website, Vaughan-Nichols & Associates. After setting up the site, one of the first things I did was to secure connections with a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate.

SSL was then, and is now, the minimum security a safe website should provide to its users. The protocol was also a major pain to set up
