I’m glad you asked!
Formal verification is an automatic checking methodology that catches many common design errors and can uncover ambiguities in the design. It is an exhaustive methodology that covers all input scenarios and also detects corner case bugs.
One of the most futuristic companies I know of is Runtime Verification that uses formal Methods in industry. They have a list of accomplishments that seem like vaporware including a semantic babel fish called the K framework that can translate between languages based on formal, semantic definitions of each.

Try Xmonad! I run a community for it at https://infosec.pub/c/xmonad
It’s super lightweight and is the only formally verified window manager. There’s a new version being created for Wayland called Waymonad.
This guy is absolutely **incredible**. He does a great job at breaking down advanced concepts into understandable and even entertaining content; an absolutely brilliant engineer undoubtedly but also great at making videos.

Sneakers is one where a remake might actually be welcomed. I adore the original but spycraft has changed so much. It’s a fascinating genre too. Probably my favorite.

I read somewhere that he wrote it. It was a reliable news article actually…aaaaaand it disappeared.
Anyway, he certainly was instrumental in helping write it. I think you’re trying to downplay his role in it. He was THE champion of the bill and Hunter got $250,000 paycheck from MBNA the following year. Explain that for us.
Here’s some quotes from an article on this subject:
But it passed anyway, with 18 Democratic senators breaking ranks and casting their vote in favor of the bill. Of those 18, one politician stood out as an especially enthusiastic champion of the credit companies who, as it happens, had given him hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions – Joe Biden.
Despite his protestations, it is indisputable that Biden was an avid supporter of the 2005 bill as a whole and of its overall thrust of tightening up the bankruptcy code largely to the benefit of lenders at the expense of distressed families who would find it harder to file for bankruptcy.
“Biden was one of the most powerful people who could have said no, who could have changed this. Instead he used his leadership role to limit the ability of other Democrats who had concerns and who wanted the bill softened,” said Melissa Jacoby, a law professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill specialising in bankruptcy.

Identity politics might be causing you to blame the wrong person for the student loan crisis. Reagan certainly made everything he touched awful. I wont even argue that. He was objectively awful. But Biden’s legislation brought it into hyperdrive. Source: me (a person with $100,000 of inescapable student loan debt thanks to Joseph Biden.)
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/dec/02/joe-biden-student-loan-debt-2005-act-2020
You know the country is lurching FAR rightward when Reagan is aligned with everyone in the Congress right now including the corporate Democrat in office. They ALL (both GOP and DNC corporatists) are on a mission to commodify every single basic human right in exchange for massive bribes.

This is why I decided to learn Nix. I built dev environment flakes that provision the devshell for any language I intend to use. I actually won’t even bother unless I can get something working reliably with Nix. ;)
For example, here’s a flake that I use for my Python dev environment to provide all needed wiring and setup for an interactive Python web scraper I built:
{
description = "Interactive Web Scraper";
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs?ref=nixpkgs-unstable";
utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
};
outputs = { self, nixpkgs, utils }: utils.lib.eachSystem ["x86_64-linux"] (system: let
pkgs = import nixpkgs { system = system; };
in rec {
packages = {
pyinputplus = pkgs.python3Packages.buildPythonPackage rec {
pname = "pyinputplus";
version = "0.2.12";
src = pkgs.fetchPypi {
inherit pname version;
sha256 = "sha256-YOUR_SHA256_HASH_HERE";
};
};
pythonEnv =
pkgs.python3.withPackages (ps: with ps; [ webdriver-manager openpyxl pandas requests beautifulsoup4 websocket-client selenium packages.pyinputplus ]);
};
devShell = pkgs.mkShell {
buildInputs = [
pkgs.chromium
pkgs.undetected-chromedriver
packages.pythonEnv
];
shellHook = ''
export PATH=${pkgs.chromium}/bin:${pkgs.undetected-chromedriver}/bin:$PATH

Not sure what this sensationalist headline is about. Zum has been pretty damned good in my experience since last Thursday. There were tons of kinks that needed to be ironed out and clearly there were situations where bus drivers screwed up bad. But honestly, I’ve been impressed with the app and IMO the kinks will be ironed out. It has brought the BPS bussing system to a whole new level of transparency. I can tell down the SECOND where my child and my child’s bus are. Before, you’d get a phone call saying the bus is running late or they couldn’t find a bus driver.
