But, does he use the Oxford comma?

This is as stupid as starting a war over cracking the big end or little end of an egg. Or, using whatever book was about that subject as a spelling style guide.





you crack the ends of eggs?!

Soft boiled eggs are put in an egg cup and cracked to eat the soft yolk. I believe it’s not a thing in the US.

What surprises me is that someone would consider cracking the big end of the egg. And have it sitting upside down in the egg cup?

Ludicrous! Absolutely ludicrous! :)


When boiled, for example (this a reference to Swift's Gulliver's Travels)

And hence big endian and little endian byte orders.

(Yeah, but somebody doesn’t know that.)


Guess I am one of the lucky 10000 today.

that's much less important than where he places a full stop when there are parenthetical remarks (such as here).

Bro don't even joke about that
