Boca Raton doesn't allow billboards, car dealerships, or Walmarts. We don't normally notice it, but these things jar us as soon as we go to neighboring towns. It's a subtle improvement of outdoor experience (more architecture

My son died at birth in August of 2022. A month later, my wife found a group of 30-some Loss Dads who at the time met monthly via Zoom. I quickly bonded with all the Dads there, despite most of us never having met each other in person. I at

I'd prefer not maintaining a server. If I set it up, I'll post here. All the quotes are in a JSON file that's loaded in the browser, so you could download the relevant js file and parse out the quotes data JSON. I may make th

Oops, I missed that. I would enjoy this feature but I think it's unlikely to be considered by the committee. As far as I'm aware it hasn't been discussed.

It's limited. You can pass functions as arguments to other functions. You can't return a function as a function result.

As I understand it, the TIOBE index is calculated based on search engine rankings. What I believe helped Fortran's ranking was our hard work on its web presence [1] (started April 2020), modern tooling [2] (started December 2019), and
