Which of my facts aren’t true? Assembler is dying. Confirmed by one of Assembler’s experts, Ray Mullins.
With a name like Bill Johnson, I would either be Scandinavian or black most likely. I’m the former. Swedish mostly. Are you aware of how Swedes are named? Here’s some context easily found on the web on highly credible sites. First names often provide information such as gender and historical trends, cultural backgrounds, and nationality. Last names provide information on the roots of the family system and the origin of ethnicity. Using both can increase the chances of being able to predict someone's ethnicity with greater confidence.

It's unfortunate that being certain and being correct are two very different things. FWIW, I would have guessed from your name that you were of Anglo-Saxon ancestry, but you claim otherwise. ________________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> on behalf of Bill Johnson <00000047540adefe-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu> Sent: Saturday, September 16, 2023 10:38 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: AI will surpass human intelligence! I have a talent for facts. Which I’ve posted throughout this diatribe. The problem is many of you don’t like someone outside the cult showing you up so you attack and make ridiculous accusations and idiotic comparisons like the college one. Fact - assembler is dying a slow tortuous death. Fact - anyone can tell with near certainty the color and ethnicity of most posters here simply based on their names.

You have a talent for gratuitous insults and an obsession with starting and then arguing about wild digressions from whatever was the topic at hand. AI to assembler language to system programming demographics is quite the meander; each of those would have been worth separate discussions, but not in the unpleasant way you bring them up and then harangue anyone who disagrees with you. A basic question is why, since you disdain everyone here and disagree with most of what people say, you're still here. You're not changing minds, not making friends, not providing useful information, and not contributing anything. You're excellent at trolling though, which seems to be your sad reason for being. So you're entertaining, in a ghastly sort of way. On Fri, 15 Sep 2023 18:33:25 +0000, Bill Johnson <mellonb...@yahoo.com> wrote: >Are you that naive? Ever been to Share?
