10/19 - Two and Thirteen Times Thankful Thursday

Dear Uncle @Bobby |For realz. These are a little more work than 23 cents. they are a little more work than 50 cents for 5. Ya gotta break it down a little.

 

As it was described to me, it died out when the empire decided to adopt Christianity as its official religion, and scribes needed some extra tools to reduce the error rate in manually transcribing copies of the Bible.

So they introduced spaces, punctuation, and lowercase.

 

I wish I could link you to the video, but it's behind a paywall as part of the best Javascript course on the entire Internet:

Pretty sure Douglas brings it up in either "Programming style", or "Composition".

He uses it as an example of the importance of writing code that communicates to the programmer as well as it communicates to the computer.

Can you do more than 1 of these?

 

Yes. Friday is 12 hours away, so you should be able to complete it within that framework, no?

 

Can i get the qual too?

 

I mean, you also have the fact that similar events/changes happen in different places it slightly different ways too. There are about 5 ways bread was invented in vaguely the same way, in different parts of the world- and lauguage has a lot of similar occurences like that. And even when something is "first recorded," it obvs doesn't account for all the shit we have never seen or was destroyed, etc. There are probably multiple explanations for spaces tbh.
