Loneliness is a bad relationship advisor it seems. It's like going to the supermarket with an empty stomach: you end up loading your cart with a lot of crap. Btw, these scams are a worldwide trend. The wildest case I've read was a

Academics are not so hot on DSLs as one may think. Typically, they are viewed as padding material to the real research contribution. Anecdotally, I can recall papers being bashed because of the use of a DSL, but not applauded because of it.

How does one upgrade? WSL already nags me from this morning that "A new WSL update is available." But when I try to update it says that I already run the most recent version, which I don't - reported version is 0.70.5.0.
