I am 95% sure that you can import wherever you want. I remember doing it with Tables i defined in an extra document and then imported only where i actually needed them.

There are multiple kinds of import in latex.

The GP specifically mentions packages, so means \usepackage.


I would go and say Fortran is pretty legible because it only has a handful of builtin keywords and none of the fancy stuff alot of other languages have.

Julia has the fancy stuff aswell as being very legible and also having a nice REPL for instant feedback which is usefull for people learning (as well as multiple notebook implementations Pluto.jl or Jupyter) Chapel has even more of the fancy stuff like multiple loop types for different kinds of parallelism which is just wildly cool.


Ethics?


Knives can kill: should we destroy them ? Height can kill: should we make the earth even ? Rock can kill: should we ban rocks ? Water can kill: should we destroy all waters ?

(yes, this is argumentum ad absurdum; Effort is made to prevent access to the nuclear waste, like all toxic materials)


When you have to build Nuclear Reactors then this is not now. The avg. building time of Nuclear Reactors is 9-12 Years.



I am counting delays that are always occuring. There is only two reactor blocks that I know that didn't have delays in recent years.

These are build times for just single Reactor Blocks, in 2020 to 2022. https://www.worldnuclearreport.org/IMG/pdf/wnisr2023-v5.pdf#...

Real examples in the last years: Olkiluoto 3 - 17 Years SHIDAO BAY-1 - 9 Years Flammanvill-3 - 17 Years VOGTLE-4 - 11 Years FANGCHENGGANG-4 - 8 Years RAJASTHAN-7 - 14 Years


No you are cherry picking specific examples that fit your incorrect claim. 6.5 years is the current average.


Even more reason to start now.


Well, its wrong though. Its not the cheapest. Thats solar and by a long shot. Nuclear is literally the most expensive energy source. Also take into account the timeframe to build nuclear powerplants. 9 to 12 Years on average built time and delays often happen.


There is exactly one thing that I would have ever needed ArcGid for and thats for Non Rectangular Map Borders. That does not yet exist in QGIS. But i managed to do using a GMT.jl.


Yes we should not sugarcoat this. Money made due to illegal pragtices should not be regarded much different than for example money from money laundering.


Dumb question but how is a language rusty without a Borrow Checker? For me it feels like that would be the primary point of being "Rusty".


I guess it's the typing and syntax that feels like writing simple Rust, even though the semantics aren't that similar when you look closer.


My problem with OSMand even though it is immensely powerfull is the rendering speed is so slow. Sometimes i just want to have a quick look where I am, but it takes so long to load higher detail levels.


Have you tried it since the vector map release a few weeks back? I found it greatly improved rendering performance.


What do you mean the vector release? OSMAnd has had vector maps forever (since the beginning?). Did they change the rendering?


Which version does carry this release and does it have to be manually activated?

I'm running 5.1.3 and it's rendering is awfully slow


I would like an answer to this aswell. Its realy not rendering fast and i have it redownloaded this week.


I am trying to shift more to this style of commenting. Because I am not a programmer by education. I am a physicist and most physicists are like I want comments in my code so do it like this.. and then you as a student do what you need to for a good grade.
