No kid in the history of the world has ever used their phone in class to willingly use Wikipedia or a translator, stop this nonsense. If the school wants to teach children how to use these tools, fine, but on devices that won't spy on

Synesthesia! I had the biggest conundrum as a child. I remembered my grandmother had two dolls on her shelf, one pink and one blue. One tall and thin, one short and fat. I also remembered that the colors "matched" the body types.

Being able to sense timbre has nothing to do with being able to tell the shape of the waveform of a sound. You're able to recognize red, you're unable to tell me it's wavelength (intuitively)

I think I'm missing the joke. Is it just an umbrella, or is it a weapon as well?... They seem to constantly allude to it being a weapon. Is it just because it's strong?

Honestly, my reason for liking spaces is "I know what every invisible character in my code is". Since I obviously cannot stop using spaces altogether, I use them everywhere. Also at work we all use 4 spaces for indentation. Nobody
