Are you YES sampling bias or NO sampling bias?

I prefer https://github.com/rokudev/rostd/blob/main/doc/printx.adoc, but it does increase compile times (which OP was trying to avoid).

I read this as Reverse Genociding Is Hard, thought I was on a Nethack forum, and thought, No, it's pretty easy with a cursed scroll.

Reminds me of the first time my DnD group tried out roll20.net. The chat box allows players to type things like "/roll 1d6" or "/roll 2d12" to simulate rolling dice (in these cases 1 6-sided die and 2 12-sided dice). I quickly tried "/roll 1dNaN", crashed the chat, and we went back to physical dice for the rest of the session.

Huh. I've used WSL2 and got extensively and never had any problems.

The hiptop did not use NetBSD until the very last model. It was a bare-metal RTOS prior to that.
