    i wonder what python version should be recommended as standard? should it be what debian stable currently has as its lastest? i’ve found some things can’t handle the new-ness of 3.11. so is it 3.10?

      3.11 has been out long enough that it is supported by almost all mainstream libraries now. Unless you have a reason to use an older version (of which there are quite a few to be fair), 3.11 would be my default.

        the OpenAI API doesn’t like 3.11 at the moment but yeah, it’s easy enough to use an earlier version, especially with conda
