But punctuation rules might be very different, e.g. in Spanish ordinal numerals are supposed to have a dot to denote that it's a contraction: 1.º

Nowadays this seems to die down, but it still is in the rules:

Entre el número y la letra volada debe haber un punto.

There must be a period between the number and the superscript letter.

I don't know, I've had plenty of good experiences on the job, and even when it wasn't good it mostly wasn't bad, just not good (that's probably what most of the time was)

In my opinion, if main experience is buttering the boss, it isn't a pleasant or rewarding experience

Needs getting used to though

This is more important, afaik, you need to use it for a month at least (this fact doesn't help in finding a good pillow, unfortunately)

When people say ‘back in my day we slept on sawdust’, but this time it actually turns out to be true

Sounds sad, to be fair

Decoupling language from syntax will not work because it's too hard (impossible?) to find a common denominator for all the languages and syntaxes, imo

Imo, if they succeed in automating everything they probably will not have to care about drop in population either

Yeah, this will probably have interesting consequences down the line, but not in 2030, and maybe not 2100 even
