I'd question the logic of rewriting it from scratch. Why not refactor it gradually? That way you can move from working version to working version without the risk of it all falling apart. You could therefore refactor it in, say, Rust and use interop to interface new and old bits.

I think this is normal. I use maths in my job every single day and I don't think numbers have values to me anymore, they're just symbols that are part of a rich and complex language.

I presume this is the all time list of *worst* British songwriters? You don't say but that must be what you mean

Not a fan of Windows _but_ just tapping the Windows key and then typing what I want to run is a really cool feature. They probably stole it off Macs but now Linux does it as well so we're all winners...

Yeah, misinformation (however it's spread) will always be a problem but hopefully misinformation about facts (about policies) will be easier to disprove? Maybe I'm just naively optimistic....

Yes and no, it was broken long before social media was a thing. Fundamentally, reducing all the complex choices necessary to run a country down to two personalities is doomed to fail. We should vote on policies not personalities.

'I'm not political' is too ambiguous in my opinion, it could mean "I'm not bothered about politics" or "I think the current political system is broken and I want something new".
