A slightly simpler explanation: GraalVM solves the startup time but clojure's built-in eval wouldn't work after compilation so you need to reimplement it in a simpler way.

He's not even trying to be a threat. He supports the annexation of Crimea. Generally isn't too critical of Russia on any big geopolitical issues. Doesn't even poll that well. Only his anti-corruption activism might have made

They are hard, but we do have some. And even the most naive physical activity level vs all-cause-mortality studies show a mild effect at best. No controls. Common sense would tell you that physical activity has to spuriously correlate wit

Oh, there's absolutely a huge body of evidence showing exercise has "beneficial" effects on this or that measure. But it's hard to go from there and claim a huge life expectancy increase. > There's also research

You're just picking who to compare Sweden to. There's no reason why we should only compare it to neighboring countries. Sweden had no lockdown and did about as bad as worst performers many of which had a heavy lockdown. This is ab

I'm no fan of lockdowns, but comparisons to the prohibition of alcohol in America are appeals to political mythology. You may argue it didn't work to the extent some have wanted it to, but it did produce "positive" resul

President Trump has explicitly said he's okay with the system in Florida. Universal mail-in voting is different in that every registered voter gets a mail-in ballot without even requesting one.

Right which is why you can read about physically unexplainable chronic pain conditions at large. It doesn't mean that people don't have RSIs, TMJ or whatever. There's simply no evidence that these are reliably linked to some

Well a breakup is definitely easier to define. But you should specify along which lines. YouTube is the obvious one. Maybe a bunch of other acquisitions that aren't too techy can be rolled back. What about other products? Gmail? Maps?
