The typical American pronunciation is "cruhsahnt", with the emphasis placed on the second syllable.

Yeah that's a complete myth and not based on actual science.

In modern chess, engines have gotten good enough that we generally do know the top moves and humans can't beat them. We can even numerically assess someone's chess play with a computer, which we call "accuracy". Obviously they can always be improved further, and there are a handful of situations where they might misevaluate, but it's still pretty incredible.

Engines have only made chess more exciting as they have shattered a lot of old theory and helped people find a lot of new and innovative ideas. They are an incredible aid in analysis and tournament prep.

Yeah I have no idea wtf this meme is talking about. A lot of people seem to have this weird idea that ADHD gives you some immense ability to focus? When it's literally the opposite. They hear about hyper focus and think that means you have some weird superpower. In reality it's an inordinate amount of attention given to whatever is the most interesting thing to you, at the expense of focus paid to things you actually need to do. It seems pretty unlikely that the person described in the OP is extremely interested in a shopping task.

Uh, there's still a shitload of websites out there doing SSR using stuff like PHP, Rails, Blazor, etc. HTML is alive and well, and frankly it's much better than you claim.

Antivirus software doesn't belong with the others.
