The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

Why do people think that Nikola Tesla was a bad guy?

Nobody thinks Nicola Tesla was a bad guy. Everybody liked him, he never hurt a fly. He invented alternating current, the basis for all electrical energy generation and transmission today. Some people think he was bit of a space cadet, not a good enough businessman to fully develop most of his ideas. That was Thomas Edison’s view of him. But, even Edison didn’t think Tesla was a “bad guy”. Just impractical, most of the time, anyway. Brilliant, but, impractical. https://www.quora.com/Why-do-people-think-that-Nikola-Tesla-was-a-bad-guy
