Gotta keep that applications barrier to entry going...

Yes. I suspect that the term "Latinx" was invented by some gringx.

Growing up in Moore, Oklahoma in the 1960s and 1970s, my mother frequented the C.R. Anthony's store in the City of Moore Shopping Center. They used pneumatic tubes; the person at the check-out counter would put a receipt and money tendered into a tube and off it would go to somewhere, I figured some office in back, where they made change and sent the tube back. You could hear it rattle around a bit as it went on its way, and the way it would come back, zip out onto a open curved "landing strip" and slam into the stop was impressive.

CanCon 2.0?

What kind of hardware would one need to use the model with reasonable performance?

Darn. Now nobody can attach it to a car, like in the urban legend.

How does one debug with GnuCOBOL?

I can only speak for myself, but Python struck me as much simpler to learn and understand than Perl. Also, my hatred for sigils burns with the heat of a million suns, going back to the $ suffix for string variables and functions in BASIC.

Libraries bring author $$$/reader down considerably.

True. We'll see. I run VMs on the computer, so it's nice to have the RAM anyway and I might as well max it out.

Nice. Just ordered the 64 GB of RAM to max out my computer w/5600G at 128.

Ah. Thanks. Yes, "accolade" in English is an award or privilege, or the tap you get with a sword when you become a knight.

I'm curious. What is "accolade-free code"? It's referenced and highlighted as if it had a link but it doesn't, and Google appears to think it's a hapax legomenon (or whatever the equivalent is for phrases instead of words).

Sigh. Now I have to track down a copy of The Memluks' album Partida, so I can listen again to their classic "Joe's Thymus" (inspired, I'm sure, by the Readers' Digest "I am {Joe's, Jane's} [name of organ]" articles).
