There is at least one project that managed to take the Iverson ghost[1] from Numpy and actually implement a complete array language[2] on top of it, so there is no need to stray far away from Python's ecosystem. Previous discussion: h

In car-choked cities the average car speed taking into account congestion may be lower than walking or cycling. So less of them will increase mobility for sure, both for those in cars and those using other tranportation means.

For a time pluto had good estimates for his small size, but poor constraints on his mass beyond this Neptune mass estimate. So I remember reading a short story were they interpreted the possible high density as signs of a stargate.

Perhaps searching for Planet 9 we went straight to Planet 10. There was another one and we happened to find it first. Or also it could be a nomadic planet undergoing a close encounter with the solar system.

It surely helps. Take for example History, if I space out for whatever reason in the class and botch my examination on the Aztecs, that doesn't preclude me doing great in the classes about the Roman empire. History is like a sparse sub

Just anedata, but the earliest memory I can recall is from when I was 3, by the time my brother was born. But it's too fragmentary. From 6-8 onwards I can recall much better what was like being me by then.
