Robin released at least 2 faster/improved versions that run in a couple of seconds - less string concatenation which is slow in BASIC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dw2hvtF95Qw
"Novices are not the only victims of modes. Experts often type commands used in one mode when they are in another, leading to undesired and distressing consequences. In many systems, typing the letter "D" can have meanings as diverse as "replace the selected character by D," "insert a D before the selected character," or "delete the selected character." How many times have you heard or said, "Oops, I was in the wrong mode"?"
"I recorded clearances for a total of 20 bridges, viaducts and overpasses: 7 on the Bronx River Parkway (completed in 1925); 6 on the initial portion of the Saw Mill River Parkway (1926) and 7 on the Hutchinson River Parkway (begun in 1924 and opened in 1927). I then took measure of the 20 original bridges and overpasses on the Southern State Parkway, from its start at the city line in Queens to the Wantagh Parkway, the first section to open (on November 7, 1927) and the portion used to reach Jones Beach. The verdict? It appears that Sid Shapiro was right."
"Overall, clearances are substantially lower on the Moses parkway, averaging just 107.6 inches (eastbound), against 121.6 inches on the Hutchinson and 123.2 inches on the Saw Mill."
If buses have always about 118" that would be effective.

"According to Google, the situation described by that Reddit poster simply isn’t how account bans work. If one account violates Google’s TOS, that particular account may be eligible for a ban, but the ban doesn’t “stick” to the hardware, and just because other people logged in on the same device wouldn’t mean they automatically get banned, too."
Maybe not on purpose but this is known to be not how it works (amazing that being said on HackerNews): https://jackyan.com/blog/2026/04/family-loses-all-their-acco... https://www.androidauthority.com/google-account-bans-3654171...
