Huge congrats on the release! I'm slowly trying to build an app on Iroh; it's progressing tiny bit by tiny bit, but I must admit I'm struggling a lot all the time, both with various low-level details, as well as with understa

In the classic FLOSS tradition, it would be cool if you might still consider publishing such a "not-ready" repository - some people may (or may not!) be still interested, and also (sorry!) there's the bus factor... But on the

I had some light contact with Prolog long ago during my studies - I have a rough idea how it is used and what it can be useful for, but only on surface, not deep at all. I keep hearing about Datalog since, as some amazing thing, but I don&#

Even though bisphenol-A is banned in EU, I believe bisphenol-B is still allowed. I suspect - though I don't know how to research whether it's true or false - that everyone just switched to bisphenol-B, which is said to be either s
