That is not a pure upgrade, GPL may well be the "better" / safer / trusted /... option for some

Cloud flare taking a strong anti ai scraping stance. Then turning around and acquiring an AI hosting service also feels contradictory

You probably got served an Anubis challenge first, doing some computations to block (LLM) scraper bots, which does slow down loading by a second or so

#1 destroys peoples willingness to publish and unfairly hogs bandwidth / creates costs for small hosters

#2 makes a big corp a bit angry

Indeed not the same thing

Is there a significant difference between that package and SageMath / XCas / Octave and friends? While a bit arcane, I've always been a great fan of xcas

Indeed, but listing LaTeX as "No scripting" seems odd at best

The flightplans get shared and updated with every involved area. Usually those can say no ahead of time and always at the time of airspace entry (entering US airspace for example) What checks the FAA does to those plans, I doubt we'll ever know

I think he just means it comes with all the functions of the calculator, that there's nothing the calculator can do that python can't

I thought most of the alternatives used summary as a title and description as a body, which is how we've been writing it as well? Or am I out of wack here?

Relies very strongly on simple airgapping. Can't do anything to it if there's no wires in the direction you want. Can't remotely hack if there's nothing antenna connected that can talk to flight control. It has the luxury of not needing to do the "limited RCE" that is a modern web request

I don't think your issue is super uncommon, I experience it myself, as does most of my family. Unless all of us share an undiagnosed condition of course
