Interesting that it was a veterinarian that diagnosed you. I've noticed a pattern of veterinarians seemingly being better doctors than human doctors. They seem to pay more attention to current research and continue their learning, and

Have you looked into the Carnivore Code in regards to autoimmune issues? https://carnivoremd.com/book/ It's full of useful information even if you don't intend to go full carnivore.

I suspect it’s that they don’t care. It’s not an issue for them because they don’t use the missing native functionality anyway. Also, if you frequently use cross platform software on multiple platforms, it’s possible consistency within the

And I don't see how Go could be better in that respect, other than not allowing tuning. But that's really no different than not tuning the settings on the JVM.

The .NET framework is usually expected to be installed at the system level. And to what extreme do you take that line of thought? Should the kernel size be included?

It'd be cool to have the Haskell feature of putting backticks around a binary function so you can use it infix, e.g.: ((A `mmul` B) `mvmul` (a `vdot` b) * c) `vadd` d Still not as nice as operators, but not terrible either.

I don't think I've ever seen generics be the cause of over-engineered complexity in Java. It's pretty much always giant, complex class hierarchies or a bunch of reflection (or both).

OCaml has generics (and global inference!) and compiles very fast.

I would argue that code using generics is often easier to read than code without it. The fact that something is a type variable makes it clear the that type of that thing doesn't matter.

Ibuprofen is terrible for other reasons. If you're taking Tylenol, one thing you can do to help protect against liver damage is to take a milk thistle supplement.
