Haven't yet seen this tool, but here's a quick answer. A few years ago, after skimming through the docs, I gave up on Anki because it seemed too complicated . I was using SuperMemo back when it was a DOS (and later Windows 3) a

Just one nitpick: in fact, > an atheist or a pagan could baptize someone but they need to (a) know the right words, (b) do the right thing (i.e., immerse/pour/sprinkle the baptized with/in water) and (c) have the intention

Thanks for clarification. So, maybe "non-mainstream" might be a better description, then.

Out of curiosity: what do you consider JRRT's "questionable views"?

Emacs Lisp has AOP built in [0], and in this context it is extremely useful. The common use case is advising functions of a third-party library without modifying the library itself (which wouldn't survive e.g. an upgrade). This i

Very interesting, although I was a bit disappointed by the lack of GEOS ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEOS_(8-bit_operating_system) ).

Long-time Beeminder user here. You are theoretically right, but I don't think it works like this in practice. I've never had a problem with declaring that they should not charge me, and the charge was always canceled if that

That's not the point. Imagine wanting to do a quick prototype, for example. A miniframework like this could be a great fit. Or when you code something (probably not too big) from scratch.
