Because the internet revolves around communication and communication is fostered by standardization such as consistent spelling. If you don’t want to communicate in a way people easily understand, then don’t. Pretending to adhere to the rules and then throwing a curve ball throws a lot of people off for no purpose, including me. That’s why it’s annoying.

Quite the opposite. When you don’t hear the RAM beep, then you’re scared.

In the original Sherlock Holmes stories Watson just came back from the War in Afghanistan. That was in 1887 and Doyle was referencing what was already the second Anglo-Afghan war.

Ambidextrous Sofa
In mathematics, the moving sofa problem or sofa problem is a two-dimensional idealization of real-life furniture-moving problems and asks for the rigid two-dimensional shape of the largest area that can be maneuvered through an L-shaped planar region with legs of unit width.
A variant of the sofa problem asks the shape of the largest area that can go around both left and right 90-degree corners in a corridor of unit width (where the left and right corners are spaced sufficiently far apart that one is fully negotiated before the other is encountered).
Cantor’s Leaky Tent
In topology, a branch of mathematics, the Knaster–Kuratowski fan […] is a specific connected topological space with the property that the removal of a single point makes it totally disconnected. It is also known as Cantor’s leaky tent […].
Sexy Prime
In number theory, sexy primes are prime numbers that differ from each other by 6.
In mathematics, the coin problem […] is a mathematical problem that asks for the largest monetary amount that cannot be obtained using only coins of specified denominations. For example, the largest amount that cannot be obtained using only coins of 3 and 5 units is 7 units.
[…]
One special case of the coin problem is sometimes also referred to as the McNugget numbers. […] A McNugget number is the total number of McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets in any number of boxes. In the United Kingdom, the original boxes (prior to the introduction of the Happy Meal–sized nugget boxes) were of 6, 9, and 20 nuggets.
According to Schur’s theorem, since 6, 9, and 20 are (setwise) relatively prime, any sufficiently large integer can be expressed as a (non-negative, integer) linear combination of these three. Therefore, there exists a largest non–McNugget number, and all integers larger than it are McNugget numbers.
Ugly Duckling Theorem
The ugly duckling theorem is an argument showing that classification is not really possible without some sort of bias. More particularly, it assumes finitely many properties combinable by logical connectives, and finitely many objects; it asserts that any two different objects share the same number of (extensional) properties. The theorem is named after Hans Christian Andersen’s 1843 story “The Ugly Duckling”, because it shows that a duckling is just as similar to a swan as two swans are to each other.

- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 4 weeks ago:
Figuring things out yourself is always hit or miss. Either the specific neurons required for you to understand something fire or they don’t.
Relying children to figure something out for themselves is doubly stupid. Because for that to work, the child must want to learn the thing and then be able to understand it. If reading an analog clock isn’t something you need (and maybe you’re not even around analog clocks), then you won’t learn.
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 4 weeks ago:
I don’t have a horse in this race, but your argument doesn’t hold up. If you want a way to tell the time during a power outage, you don’t need an analogue clock, you need one that runs on batteries.

Remember how Cyberpunk got hyped across the board? Not a single critical voice before launch (as far as I’ve heard). If that’s the “journalism” you’re providing, then I’m sure as hell not paying for it.
