Youth Bulge theory: Why there won't be an Uprising in Russia - Learning Machines

=> ↺ Youth Bulge theory: Why there won't be an Uprising in Russia - Learning Machines

Many wonder why there are so few protests in Russia over the brutal war against Ukraine. An answer could lie in the youth bulge theory which we will use again to explain the relative lethargy of the Russian populace, so read on!

With rak, anything that starts with a dash (-) is considered to be an "option". Anything else that you specify on the command line, is considered to be an "argument". It does not matter in which order options are specified. The order of arguments is important: the first being the pattern, and the other arguments being the paths to search in.
But before discussing all of the myriad options of rak (shown to you when you do rak --help), it is important to know how the specification of options work exactly, and how they interact with any of your customized options.
