Cliff Stoll (kooky scientist, Cold War era hacker, klein bottles) published a 1995 essay and then a book claiming the web was overhyped and apparently it became known for being so wrong. But overall I think he really nailed it!!!!!

just fell into a rabbit hole of linguistics research where they write quiz questions with african american grammar/syntax and it's kind of fun to see which ones stump "standard english" speakers

"openai.com" was once the personal homepage of a guy named glenn (2001), and "tiktok.com" was the quaint shared homepage of a couple as their relationship progressed from dating to married with a baby (2000). THREAD!!!

"Porpoises rescue Dick Van Dyke" The Guardian
This article is more than 14 years old
Mary Poppins star feared death after apparently falling asleep on his surfboard but friendly sea creatures pushed him to shoreOn screen, Dick Van Dyke has been rescued from untimely death by flying cars and magical nannies. Off screen, the veteran star of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Mary Poppins had to rely on the help of a pod of porpoises after apparently dozing off aboard his surfboard. “I’m not kidding,” he said afterwards.

Van Dyke’s ordeal began during an ill-fated trip to his local beach. “I woke up out of sight of land,” the 84-year-old actor told Craig Ferguson on his TV chat show. “I started paddling with the swells and I started seeing fins swimming around me and I thought ‘I’m dead!’”

Van Dyke was wrong. “They turned out to be porpoises,” he said. “And they pushed me all the way to shore.” The porpoises were unavailable for comment.
