“It's fairly obvious, since Richard Nixon, that there is no such thing as a fair deal for any voter in the United States -- You're just not gonna get it. It's a joke -- the people that you vote for, they're the next best thing to criminals.

“So-called "natural language" is wonderful for the purposes it was created for, such as to be rude in, to tell jokes in, to cheat or to make love in (and Theorists of Literary Criticism can even be content-free in it), but it is hopelessly inadequate when we have to deal unambiguously with situations of great intricacy, situations which unavoidably arise in such activities as legislation, arbitration, mathematics or programming.” PurposeLanguageNaturalDealsSituationWonderfulActivityJokesCriticismMathematicsAriseProgrammingCheatMaking LoveRudeLegislationInadequateTheoristsLiterary CriticismIntricacyArbitration Author:Edsger Dijkstra
