Every single social event is a financial consideration now. Want to go out with the wife for the evening? It's going to cost $150+ for a baby sitter at $25/hour. The dinner + tip is going to cost $200. Parking is going to cost $50 - $100 if you go into a city. You could take public transportation but then you're loooking at that cost shifting back to the babysitter. Before you know it you're in for $300 - $500 just for a night off.

There are two things that I feel impacted the US here:

1. the R&D tax credit was gone from 2022 - 2025 thanks to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed in 2017.

2. private equity does not invest in R&D

I wonder how much this work being pushed forward right now is a response to the Bun drama.

Phantasy Star remains to this day my favorite RPG. I was the kid in the neighborhood who's parents bought a SEGA Master System instead of a NES. I would play Final Fantasy a bit over their houses but it always paled in comparison to Phantasy Star. I recently replayed it on Nintendo Switch. Still a very challenging RPG and stil feels great.

I agree that borrowing against unrealized gains is crap, it's lead to major economic divide. However, just make borrowing against unrealized gains illegal. Taxing unrealized gains is the wrong solution for a real problem.

I only ran both with `cargo build --release`

Just a small comparison, compiled for release:

Boa: 23M Brimstone: 6.3M

I don't know if closing the gap on features with Boa and hardening for production use will also bloat the compilation size. Regardless, for passing 97% of the spec at this size is pretty impressive.

One that was tossed in 0.15 was `usingnamespace` which was a bit rough to refactor away from.

You may be correct, but the rate of change in baseball is glacially slow compared to the other sports. One of baseball's intrinsic values is it's legacy, tradition, and history. Some may scoff at that, and I think there are good arguments against legacy/tradition as a reason to withhold change, but there are a lot of people out there that believe this. The MLB Commissioner's have largely been tasked with protecting that tradition and history.

This is how CSS should be written. I will never understand why class names need to repeat the semantic purpose for a given element.

How far should I be able to progress? I can out of the first room and open the cabinet in the second room, but cannot progress further.
