- FloorEgg 1y agoIt actually really seems that way. They unwittingly illustrate part of the phenomenon while claiming to explain it.
- raincole 1y agoThe wikipedia editor clearly believes the misunderstanding is so common that they have to put it in the first paragraph. But people (like the OP author) still just ignore it. I have a quote for this: > "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." — Rick Cook But wikipedia.
