The democracy in the US is faulty in many ways. Democracy isn't a black or white kind of thing, so of course you can be ashamed of the lack of democracy that ended up with this person in charge.

If you aren't sure your answer is correct then you're more likely to redo the problem or try to confirm it with fuzzier calculations. This is difficult and is great exercise.

Learning math isn't just about being correct. It's about doing the motions and learning how to problem solve.

Using the computer the way you suggest will make you lazy as you won't learn to do these hard things.

Yes, my point was that it's probably more verbose because it doesn't have the same feature set

Neovim is actively moving in that direction.

If you want to replicate the lazy features then it will get verbose. Even using a dedicated plugin for lazy loading it's not as tight as lazy.nvim.

You may argue that you don't need lazy loading, which is fine, but they're not 1-to-1 compatible.

What are you getting FOMO over? Been using Neovim since it forked from Vim and I'm very happy with it.

Lua has been a big boon to advanced configuration and the plugin ecosystem and Neovim supports everything I'd want and more. LSP and treesitter for instance are still better handled by Neovim.

If you dislike Lua (I'm not a fan) I recommend Fennel, but either way it's much better than Vimscript.

As for Claude there are at least two Neovim plugins for it. I use one of them and it works well but I can't remember which.

Assassin's Creed is also a really cool IP, and the Anno series as well.

No, you can have multiple. At least with the banks I've used (currently sparbanken).

Kivra, BankID, Sparbanken, ICA banken, Nordea, LF, Swish, Fortnox and more works perfectly well for me.

I still keep my old phone around with BankID just to be safe, but so far I haven't had any issues.

All Swedish banking apps work without issue and many apps that use play integrity works well regardless. It's just some apps that use play integrity that in a certain way that doesn't work.

Russia actively targets hospitals, fire departments and schools for years and you attribute it to "outdated info".

Shame on you.
