Did you consider the exponential behaviour? I get that 15 minutes makes for prices going up by a factor of 1.00026271523, so an increase by 0.026%. Calculation: https://www.google.com/search?q=exp((15+min)*ln(10000%2B1)%2...

We can also ask what we use the computer for now, for which we don't need the Internet.

Yeah, what was that, really? Typing QBASIC programs from paper into the computer? Using it as a fancy typewriter? Calculating ballistic trajectories? That's all I can remember.

Right! Workplaces seem to advertise to, for example, computer people how they are relaxed and that you can come to work in jeans. I just want to get to wear a suit for once, for the enjoyment of myself and others!
