You can't really understand until you've tasted choice mushrooms, the only one of which is findable in stores is the bolete, and even that's usually dry and tells terrible quality. I used to go in the forest and find maybe 5

Volunteer with a group trying to do something to improve the situation. There are plenty.

Programmers love to feel important, but no, software isn't even close to the hardest thing an intelligence can do. Unless you mean something like bioinformatics or another highly specialized field that isn't actually "softwar
