The only tricky part for me was having to build gcc (for newer libgccjit). But it wasn't too bad. And you might not have to do that at all depending on your Debian version. Hour effort approx. There was some minor brokenness native co

If someone asks me I'll answer fully and honestly. I don't like all recreational drug use, think it's a waste of time and potentially dangerous to yourself and others. Then I'll share a bunch of statistics about how alco

As for Jupyter notebooks, REPL-driven development in Clojure gives you the same ease (arguably better) of messing around with code while also scaling to serious software dev. Though it's not as nice for sharing with others. If you&#x27

What's the benefit for humans and why can't it be done any other way? I'm not a big fan of encountering insects. Very weird to see someone would actually want to protect them in cities. > Light traps for insects are to be

In my experience a lot of the population is very anti-Uighur and they wouldn't care that much. In the run up to this people have been conditioned by images of violent protests in the region. They have been demonized as religious fanati

Well, if you believe that all money one might have control over belongs to the poor (or somebody else) then I guess that's fair. But that's a pretty uncommon belief. In that way there's nothing special about the quote because

Again, as I said, I don't believe Russia has a reason to believe they'd win hence further advances in anti-nuclear defense only lessen the chance of them attacking not increase it. If one side ends up controlling the other or ther
