Perhaps you used the frozen dict implementation from the pip installable boltons library: https://boltons.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dictutils.html#bolt...

This is counter-intuitive for me. Immune system senescence is a thing. Naively I would assume it should be better to get it early, as a younger immune system has better odds to react strongly to the antigen, providing long lasting protection. Often the elderly organism doesn't react, or the reaction is too weak, to vaccine stimulation. E.g. see https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S01652...

Now I wonder if Ratman would be a fourmidable enemy to Batman.

For many years, Emacs plus ESS was the standard workflow for R users. Vim users have their own plugin. On Windows, Tinn-R was impressive, and last I checked it was still going. Of course there is also Jupyter, PyCharm, and Eclipse, plus every text editor has support for R. If something were to happen to RStudio, there would be many fine alternatives for R.


It feels like when Opera dropped its own web engine, Presto, to become just another Chrome clone.

A spacecraft carrying a blackhole as propulsion means probably would have poor power to weight ratio.


Not at all. It would have one of the best power to weight ratios possible.

Now as to whether you could use all that power....
