MacOS has been no exception to the enshittification trend, but Windows has always led by piles of shit, and is now shitting laps around the competition. Apple is trying to sell Apple to you. Microshit is selling you .

I was pretty sure myself that must be the case, until I raised kids in a trilingual household, and it's not even close. Children's natural ability for retention and adaptivity with language is truly mindboggling to witness. A chil

Once the Great Flood was over, Noah let all the animals off the Ark, and told them to go forth and procreate. And so they did, except the snake couple. So Noah made some wooden furniture for them, and thus the snakes were able to procreate.

I doubt they ever existed. I had to write a VBScript parser some 25 years ago (to syntax-check ASP files before they would crash live) and to get it to parse valid syntax correctly, I ended up with a messy patchwork of logic which was also

Surely this is the humor behind the "spherical cow" [1] metaphor for scientific oversimplification. Obviously a real cow isn't a sphere. It's a torus. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_cow
