Integration with medical systems would be amazing; my friends at top tier universities (e.g. Berkeley) want mental care but aren't sure if it's covered

from my experience there has been a constant refrain about CAPS (Counseling and Psych - usually called CAPS in school systems) departments everywhere being

1) hard to access 2) underfunded 3) unresponsive

super excited for this product :)

not a typo; when you design for the typical x86 cluster it's a cluster - you expect components to die and you can throw away whole machines (i.e. expect failure). mainframes on the other hand keep chugging along no matter what.

the usual comparison is a cluster of cheap nodes vs a mainframe

2/10 would not recommend for technical merit.

8/10 is nice if you want a handwavy human explanation of some rudimentary expectations in crypto

- author spends a few pages thinking about randomness - we have formal definitions of a RNG/PRNG.

- author does basic statistical tests, these seem very unconcerned with actual randomness - i'm not sure what the point is

- author really shouldn't be writing about crypto randomness if they don't do crypto

+1 to higher comment saying reading TAOCP instead.

Is there more comprehensive docs anywhere? I want to know what options to pass, and more detailed descriptions of what things do. The initial docs page looks like but after clicking through it seems like they all link to each other... so in summary I cant find anything I want :/

That currently would be the primary barrier to usage -- the docs arent very helpful.

Do you have suggestions for PL reading lists? I nearly never see PL mentioned on them, and have been looking for alternatives for some time as PFPL offers one approach + style to many of the problems they address, but I would love a broader survey.

Thanks!
