Just learned about https://uvx.sh/ from Django News as a way to install any Python project via the `curl ... | <shell>` pattern. Clever solution to auto-generate the shell script to download Python and the project to install it into a virtual environment on your PATH. If this catches on I wonder if it will lead to projects trying to self-update? Or will projects not written in Python start going up on PyPI to piggyback on the infrastructure?
