The reason I like evil-mode is the huge amount of work put into adding vim-style bindings for other nodes (like magit, etc). Would I lose that by switching to something like meow?

Wolfram Tones uses 1-d cellular automata to generate music. I had a lot of fun playing with this many years ago. https://tones.wolfram.com/ (not sure if it's still up, doesn't load for me)

This is off-topic, but it always amuses me that the sentence isn't even a grammatically correct construction in English, and I don't think it was in the 1770s or whenever this was written. - A well regulated Militia: noun phra

The worst part is that it pushes an item onto the history stack both when it opens and closes. So I need to press back 3 times to go back. It's a small thing to complain about but it's still atrocious.

It looks like Huntress is a "install this on your computer and we'll watch over your systems and keep you safe, for sure." I also find it kind of funny that the "blunder" mentioned in the title, according to the art

FWIW, SBCL is pretty good at optimizing away dynamic type checks if you help it out. Here are some examples under: (declaim (optimize (speed 2))) First example is a generic multiplication. x and y could be _any_ type at all.

Don't you see how one-sided this article is? The language almost exclusively assumes the allegations of antisemitic vitriol while dedicating a single paragraph to a lawyer who provides an opposing viewpoint. This is not a source for so

Same for me, but in the opposite direction. I had a revelation a few years ago that this is probably why I mix up left and right more than what seems like normal.

Those tariffs were imposed under Trump's authority given to him by Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 which, in brief, allows the Executive to impose tariffs if a foreign nation's trade practices are affecting national
