You should go back and read the climate change commentary from the 90s, which had costal cities already underwater due to melting polar ice caps. It's nowhere near as bad as most people were told it would be.

I figure by "doctor" they're thinking of a GP, who most people only ever see taking measurements and diagnosing things, not actually doing physical things like a surgeon.

By far the biggest two things screwing me up here are problems with the app itself: The single-quote opens up the browser's quick-search, leaving the app and screwing up the flow, and the automatic yellow text that moves at a constant

I think completely separating it like that goes too far in the other direction. The absolute best undergrad classes I had were the two where the lectures were entirely on the theory side, then the projects were practical implementations of

It is open source (the code is right there), but it's not Open Source due to what GP references. There is a distinction.

Stenography is very different and limited - it's something like, you hit all the keys for a word at once and it's interpreted from left to right on the keyboard when you release them. So you're typing in a phonetic shorthand
