alt Hacker NewsAuthor of the article here. Sorry it comes across as “clickbait style” when actually it’s simply Dutch bluntness and honesty
poetry update also updates the lockfile. I really think the way the uv cli is organized makes it quite annoying to work with. It’s designed for correctness, for machines, not for user-friendliness.

It's not clickbait style.

Isn't designing for machines "the way" these days?

Not having used uv but being on the Cargo team for Rust, I wish `cargo update` was `cargo lock update` because it is making our life more difficult to add a version requirement update command/mode inside of Cargo. The effort has been stalled for years.
- Our compatibility guarantees mean we can't fundamentally change `cargo update`
- Using the third-party package name of `cargo upgrade` would be confusing in the distinction between the two
- We have to be very careful adding the mode to the existing command
