Y'all know me as an old prick mainframer jock from the 60s,70s,

performing Radix sorts on IBM 082 punch card sorters, & Bubble Sorts in MF memory. It was a masculine profession back then. Today the coders are point 👉 👉 👈 👇 👇 and click "nonbinary" babies.

It took me awhile to catch on to the new vocabulary of the 21st century.

Old prick "binary" meant a numbering system used in a cumputer. Today it's heterosexual

Old prick "Nonbinary" meant base8 or base16. Now it's homosexual & transgender.

"Tertiary" probably means a bisexual 3way

sandwich now?
