But I'm not sure I'd recommend going into the field. There's something demoralizing about doing research on something which already has dozens of valid and successful methods, of which you are trying to create a slightly more

Maybe not. But I'm not going to if I can help it, which is entirely doable by using Debian's package manager. And I avoid running things as root if I can help it. It's bad enough I need to run apt as root. The recent recent n

The vast majority of apps need to use the network, at least sometimes. Eg turning network on to download podcasts then off to listen to them is annoying.

One of the dangers of a non rigorous approach is not being clear about relative rates. If you're not being precise you're going to confuse people when you say eg that in the limit this triangle is a right triangle. Or look at Tayl

Lots of people seem to love typescript, but as far as I can tell it's adding features from c++ which lots of people seem to hate. Am I missing something?

Now find a state that is majority black where whites are treated as second class citizens and redo the experiment.

I don't see scam video ads on YouTube but pretty much all article/info sites like cnbc or weather are filled with garbage, possibly also served up by Google.
