Does finding the number of unique elements in a set actually require comparison of each element with everything else? Can't you use a hashtable? For every element, add it to the table (ignore if already exists), and finally, take a count of keys.

That part of the man page sounds confusing. Is it unconditional and enabled by default?

NASA knew that people new that planetariums existed, so they didn't paint a realistic sky because people would think they used a planetarium. Game theory!

Wait until you switch to unions in rust and ask yourself whether it is a union or a struct.

Wikipedia has something interesting on this (how unions can be implemented using "class hierarchy in object-oriented programming"): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagged_union#Class_hierarchies...

There is a lengthy blog post about the same stuff, except that the author doesn't seem to have come across the said wiki section yet: https://nandakumar.org/blog/2023/12/paradigms-in-disguise.ht...

Kudos to the dev of datatype99 for showing the problem with such ad-hoc methods in the readme right away.

Is RISC-V technically superior or is it just about the license?

Any examples other than Scientific Linux?
