can i just have half this phone?

what if we mention AI somewhere???

My advice would be to build with what you know.

Even if you need to really shoehorn a component of the system in, just make a note about it and keep building. When you're done, you can go back and focus on replacing that one piece.

My view is that you learn a lot through the process of building this way.

what book?

Perfecting Parliament, by Roger Congleton. It's a history of the global move towards parliamentary systems. Obviously not primarily an economics book, but he does touch on some econ themes- here Congleton quoted Adam Smith on American colonial wages

are you concerned about something like a fire destroying all the copies?

Yes I am, and planning for it.

They should also display something indicating it is not verified when it is not

I really wish phones would change the UI to make it more obvious that caller ID shouldn't be trusted.

https://rekt.news/ is a similar one that is fun to read

Braintree is also a town near Boston in the United States:

No way! I had assumed it was too silly for North America, like Pratts Bottom or Twatt

what do you put in your Makefile?

make env = create environment and pip install editable mode (I typically list dev and test dependencies as optional-dependencies in pyproject.toml) make test = test, coverage, ... make docs = sphinx-build ... make release = build, twine, ...

I try to keep things simple.
