When I were a bit younger computers were humans. A computer was a profession, not a machine. And you powered them with booze and candy. You programmed them with standard natural language instructions. And they made lots of mis-steaks mistakes.

Geez, you young folks here just don't know how good you have it all.

Get off my lawn you rotten little whipper-snappers.
