[ale] Why Kali linux?

[Ed Cashin]

No, I don't think it matters.  You could put all the same stuff on Linux
from Scratch---It would just take longer.  That said, I like seeing what
they have on there.  I often learn something if I pay attention to that.

It's kind of like anaconda in Python.  If you're a scientist starting out
with Python, folks will say, "Use anaconda.  It has loads of stuff you
might need."
