Mr. Prady started reminiscing about people he had known during his own days as a computer programmer in New York, like the guy who could do complicated mathematical conversions in his head, but could not figure out the tip in a restaurant, because he did not know how to quantify “service.”
Whilst I know “The Big Bang Theory” series is not particularly original, and embodies a lot of...
