But not all people who avoid more foods than a vegetarian do so because of that ideology. If those people's diets exclude all animal products it's useful to use the term vegan as most English speakers will understand what you mean

Given the system assumed it was in stall, which means loss of altitude anyway, surely it's safer in general to go nose-down to avoid the stall? At least then you have a chance of recovery, which you don't in a stall. (Except of co

In contrast, what we know from facts about sea travel: even real land monsters might leave you alone once in a while but the sea is actively trying to kill you at every moment. There are real problems to be solved, like fresh water generati

I'm kind of sad that we're using HTTPS as a transport though their use cases make sense. It seems this is intended to exist alongside the existing & new secure protocols? Is it foreseen that this will only be used by web apps?

Haskell has a famously high barrier to entry that has little to do with its type system or functional nature. As a pure lazy language you have to learn a lot of concepts (What does pure mean? What does lazy mean? What is a monad?) before yo

Elixir is not statically typed. Thus you lose a lot of what makes OCaml great; a whole class of errors caught by the compiler before you run your program. I'd say the type system isn't that much of a barrier to entry. You're

Had the same UI problems. Also Signal isn't federated and doesn't use the Matrix protocol.

I would like to use Riot/Matrix but its UI (at least on Android) is terrible. I can't convince non-technical friends & family to switch. Part of the problem is the inability to assign nicknames to contacts, so you have to reme
