Virtualenv's `bin/activate` is Doing It Wrong

gistfile1.md

This article is now published on my website: Prefer Subshells for Context.

Please also look at vrun [1] which is super lightweight and simply activates a virtualenv for the duration of a command. You run something like env/bin/vrun <cmd> and it is executed with all of the virtualenv scripts etc on the path. This is similar to vex but with fewer assumptions and should be mentioned in the same conversation.
