Ironically, the term "mental retardation" was introduced by medical and educational professionals as a less derogatory and more objective replacement for older, highly stigmatizing terms like idiot, moron, and imbecile, which themselves were previous medical classifications.
They use a "basket of goods and services" to calculate the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which measures the inflation rate in America. This basket includes items in major groups such as food and beverages, housing, transportation, medical care, recreation, education, and communication. It also accounts for taxes and fees directly related to these items but excludes income taxes and investment items.
I remember typing in code from a gaming magazine because there was no storage. You turn off your computer and it's gone.
Worst part was when your triple checked everything and it still wouldn't run only to get the corrections in the magazine next month.
For sure. I worked in IT for a long time. After we switched from the mainframe to os/2 I ran it for a decade on my desktop while the company went to Windows. Then once I couldn't run os/2 anymore due to newer hardware I switched to Linux. Ran it from the late 90s until my retirement 5 years ago.
I had to support it all myself but they let me since I was also the security guy and they realized that Windows sucked.
