A question for people who have already switched to the fish shell: What is the biggest drawback of using fish? For example, you get accustomed to it on your system and then have to work with Bash or Zsh on your company’s server systems. And if I’m going to make such a big switch from Bash to fish, then why not switch to Nushell instead?

How is that different from Apple Pay or Google Pay, where you click one button and provide all your card details to a new merchant?

For me, the Dark Forest hypothesis is very probable. However, the whole book series assumes that interstellar travel is possible for advanced civilizations. What if no new physics is discovered, and the only way to accelerate/decelerate is to throw a mass in the opposite direction? Maybe all advanced civilizations in the Milky Way are limited to their planetary systems.

What do you think about the dark forest hypothesis from The Three-Body Problem book? It seems reasonable to me. Are there any sociologist or math papers that describe the game theory behind the dark forest strategy and prove it?

It looks like russian hypersonic missiles do not work as expected and what was promissed to Putin.

Serbia is not a part of Russia. It wasn't even in Soviet Union. Yugoslavia was an independent country.

How a such hypersonic missile locks a target? Does it use a radar or some optic system? I guess that plasma around the body might disrupt conventional guiding systems.

Every time I mention this here on HN I am down-voted. But I really think that in a next few decades sending (dangerous) cargo to (deep) space will become cheap and reliable. Space tourism just started this month and that will fund thousands of engineers working on that goal.

It is worth to add the Joseph Conrad was a Pole whose family fought against Russian colonialism.
