Whatever happened to the "vouch" option? I wanted to, but it seems to be gone. :-( [Ed. I see, flagged but not dead, so no vouching...]

GP explicitly covered this: Just expand your fixed-size array to the required size, it's still not a big array. It solves the exact problem, the map is overkill and overly complicated. The problem is, the map is only more complicated i

Quite, also they're definitely downstream of human hosts. The comment that was replied to was implicitly talking about strains in wild animals that could have been the source of the whole malaise.

I concur, and as a result the same goes for contracts. A friend recently told me "I never needed a lawyer because someone did not understand a contract, but several times because someone tried to finagle with legal sophistry".

A possible answer would be that greater volume also implies greater surface area (modulo shape).

No it's more complicated. High temperature superconductors are neither strictly necessary nor sufficient on their own, but I'm sure they'd help quite a bit.

Sorry, I have none. I never bothered to try acquiring de-personalised crypto, as I never needed any. The VCC idea sounds neat, but it's practically transparent for state actors. I think the easiest and safest option is directly exchang

Memorizing a few foreign language keywords is certainly the smallest challenge here. You will have to do so anyway, no matter if in a foreign or your native language. It is incredible to me that anyone could seriously suggest this would mak

So to increase your odds of surviving you can bet on your own death. That seems strangely philosophical to me. Another upside is, if you should die anyway, then at least you win the bet!
