I mean it's also in cheese. People just aren't used to the weird tang, and I don't blame them. I can tolerate it but Hershey's isn't exactly my favorite haha

You can format it on one line if you want. Please don't do that, though. Personally I prefer the method syntax with one method per line, it reads more linear than the query syntax.

I was pretty sure I was about to get in trouble when I messaged "wake up" to a kid that fell asleep at his computer and he called the teacher over. The computers were named numerically and in the same order they were laid out in t

This was a great article. I've been playing around with Smalltalk for a few weeks, which I understand is like the spiritual ancestor of Objective-C, and this reminded me a lot of that. It's probably mostly down to the oddball call

When I was a kid we had a Trinitron. I used a magnet on it once and pretended not to know anything about it as my dad called the cable company. Apparently it was able to degauss itself because the color went back to normal eventually.

I feel like people were very much offended by the "what's a computer" ad too, at least on Reddit.

I kind of went down a rabbit hole last year after the Xerox Star emulator was posted here. It was really cool, but super slow, so I felt like emulating another old system. I ended up writing a GUI calculator for RISC OS in ARM assembly, nei
