Because then when someone else suggests the same thing you can say that its in the backlog πŸ˜‰

IMO it's good to have a "shadow backlog" for stuff like this. Keep the actual backlog for prioritised product work, "ideas" and tech debt can be kept in GitHub Issues or even just a wiki page somewhere.

My proudest moment was getting a PR with typo fixes for PyPI docs merged πŸ˜‚

No one cares about the rich assholes who own other car companies, so why Tesla? For example Toyota were some of the biggest campaign donors to Trump.

Also what does this have to do with Fuck Cars? This is about the minutiae of car culture... We should be talking about trains and bicycles here.

Does one really need another dependency for this? Is cookiecutter/cruft not enough?

Nice if you use Django, are OK with the directory structure and don't use Poetry. It feels like a decent personal project but not very generalizable.

Nice, yes so it seems like the original sense was to do with, as you say imparting movement in a direction.

The sense I most think of when I use it today is almost synonymous with steering, that its about controlling the direction, rather than the motion itself.

Sexist rubbish

Gradle is absolute rubbish, definitely the worst experience I've had with a build system. But Maven is also rubbish.

IMO a CLI should be the primary way of interacting with the build system (see e.g. Go, Rust, JS with NPM or Yarn, Python with Poetry) and manually editing the build file should be reserved for edge cases and extensions.
