@streakmachine My school offered a computing course. Those who were interested went on a bus to a local Tech, where we coloured in the boxes on a form to request punched cards. The next week we all piled into the bus again, picked up our cards, and fed them into the computer. The following week we were able to pick up the output. Unless we’d made a mistake. In that case, it was back to colouring cards in. We didn’t get very far in our six week course.

Oops. @JeremyCherfas. My finger got stuck on alternating es.

@matigo You’d have to ask @jeremeycherfas. He’s probably done a podcast about it.

@matigo Once the sugar and starch have been digested, there’s no difference between doughnuts and a grain & fruit diet. Except that the grain and fruit would have other nutrients attached and wouldn’t have been fried in rancid polyunsaturated oil.
