On the contrary, some species have already obliterated most other life on earth namely cyanobacteria during the great oxigenation event. Possibly others have done the same. They certainly did not care at all about the destruction they cause

Is an XSLT processor a interpreter or a compiler? I think the terms are actually not that well defined and different people use different definitions. TeX is a compiler in the sense that it is a black box that takes input and transforms it

I still have hope that eventually hipervizor virtual machines will be available on the iPad. The hardware is already there. M1 has hipervizor support. Even the software us partly there. UTM is very capable. Maybe if Apple is forced to allow
