How many spoons does your environment cost
summary
Shows live failing demos: GPU vs Apple silicon breakage, missing libgo.so.1 from OS linker, Docker platform/memory mismatches, broken editable installs and dependency conflicts. Claims cognitive cost matters — spoon theory mapped to environment friction — and cites a 23-minute switching cost for task recovery. Notes concrete fixes and standards: PEP 751 pylock.toml, PEP 723, multi‑arch Docker builds, and where pip/conda tooling actually succeeds or still trips. Watch if concrete failure modes, error messages, and remediation steps decide viewing.
