Demagog··on R in Ecology
It is very weird to me, why he doesn't use more of tidyr and dplyr. Those are wonderful packages. The whole part of changing types of data frame, would become single call to `mutate` from dplyr package.

There is great blog [0] post explaining working with those tools. What is most important here, is that dplyr and tidyr makes data organization and analysis concise, effecient and readable way.

Demagog··on InfraRuby 3.7 – Compiler and runtime for statically-typed Ruby
If you want Ruby-like syntax with static typing and almost no type annotation then Crystal is good for you. Sadly no windows binary available
Demagog··on A 30-minute Introduction to Rust
Frankly, probably the best introduction to Rust is "Rust by example" [1]

This is much more in depth + possibility of running code on site. I don't understand why rust site doesn't have links to this project.

This is a war. Yes it is disgusting, I know, but don't be suprised. Every war looks like that. This is no fking video game or propaganda video from CNN or other TV news station. Well U.S army is no better than USSR army or Nazis. Only difference is that, American fight for money/oil and not philosophy or politics.
Demagog··on Reversing Sinclair's amazing 1974 calculator hack - half the ROM of the HP-35
Rather Ian with harder/stronger I than John. Well Polish it is not that hard. It's only second hardest language on the world (China I look at you) If it is hard for you. Well try to spell this thing correctly "Zażółć żółtą jaźń" or "Chrząszcz brzmi w trzcinie"

Sorry for OT.

All thing look really amaizing. I'd love to see more in this topic.

Demagog··on Chess written in sed
First thing that come to my mind when I read the title.

Programmer who did something like that is mad. Or he/she is from Russia.

Demagog··on Ć Programming Language - Compile C# subset to C, Java, C#, JS, AS, Perl and D
It's great name. Of course if you come from Poland or other Central Europe Country. Then all you need is type ALT + c. In Polish keyboard mode.
