Looks like an antique pill press. Feels innocent enough, but it's probably still illegal. Seems like a zero-tolerance policy (ban for life for a single mistake) might not be the right balance, though.

Asking out of ignorance & curiosity: did other cultures make cemeteries before Christianity spread that practice? I specifically mean burial plots with marked graves, for which Egyptian mummified pets don't seem to qualify.

I do hope you mean bitwise "addition" and "subtraction" -- (c => c&0xdf) or (c => c|0x20)

Lists and sets suffer the same drawbacks. If the advice is to not use any of the batteries included if the language, why are we using Python?

Counterpoint: there's a vast underinvestment in academia and universities are cutting faculty jobs in favor of underpaid sessional instructors. We're paying much more for administration and executive salaries which don't add value to society, only line their pocketbooks with taxpayer dollars and ever-increasing tuition.

Forgive my ignorance, but isn't that "used pizza box" fuel more or less ideal for a breeder reactor?

I spend an inordinate amount of time looking at plants and pictures of plants and the first image I was shown prominently displays a species very familiar to me.
