For a while GCL was the lisp that Maxima was built with. I think it's been SBCL for a while now.

Would you mind expanding on that? What are the "fewer features" that make it more useful than SBCL? I find SBCL to be highly stable. I haven't used Clisp for many years and I don't think there's been a new release f

I have a question: I was wondering if my old fb details might be part of this (I haven't had fb for about 4 to 5 years), so I searched for my email on hibp. No results for the fb leak, but hibp says my email is in the "Lead Hunter

Junk (story-telling) journalism from Time, justifying a vaccine passport by implicitly comparing coronavirus to smallpox, but: "The risk of death after contracting the disease was about 30%, with higher rates among babies.[6][12] Often

Of course they know it exists. They tried to avoid engaging in attempts to politicise a health crisis. Also, only 14 of the 193 member states of the UN recognise Taiwan as an independant nation, and "WHO" stands for World Health

There are lots of complications. What was her risk of contracting covid * her risk of dying, given an infection? Was she healthy or did she have an underlying, serious condition ? It's just not as simple as your post makes out. This

Yes, and the mechanisms for removing the false memory were: 1) Making the subject aware that there were independant witnesses (family); 2) Reminding/making the subject aware that the memory may have been created during the interview.

If I was a responsible decision maker in China, wether or not I had something to hide, I would not allow Western journalists free access. The Western press is largely, though not entirely, a mouthpiece of the Western intelligence agencies.

On Android phones, if you enable "developer" in settings, the app "fake GPS settings" can do that. Caveat: It's been almost 4 or 5 years since I used it. I used to prank colleagues on Facebook by posting from a loca

They were highly involved in the past too. I think this trope that the US used to be a beacon of freedom but now is devolving is nonsense. It's always been roughly the way it is now. "Freedom and democracy" were PR tools for

I absolutely don't live life to meet death safely. On the contrary, in the knowledge that my family will be well cared for (to a large extent), I am free to use my spare cash on stuff I think is fun.

No way. Denmark has high taxes which finance free education, free healthcare and "child money" which every mother gets. Remove those benefits and it would be much harder economically to raise children to the same standard of car
