Flowers for Algernon is a science fiction story, not a dreary period piece. I wonder if I was confusing it for Flowers in the Attic?

Something I just learned from a fucken reddit thread:

The old CD-burning software was called "Nero burning ROM", as a reference to the Roman Emperor Nero. Works even better because they're a German company who would natively spell the city as "Rom"

Fun fact, MySQL and MaxDB are named after the founder's kids, My and Max.

I mean I guess it's obvious but there's not enough room to keep putting hockey player names on the Stanley cup, they take the old people's names off when they run out of space and put the old metal piece in some terrible museum that no one ever goes to

If a plane is travelling at above the speed of sound, would you hear the sound it’s making in reverse? Maybe only if you’re stationary and directly behind it, not travelling alongside it.

Not exactly, but maybe indirectly. A temple to the Muses. Muse, the verb, might be related to the concept of a muse but has other historic uses that suggest it could be derived roughly from a version of the word "muzzle" - sort of "sniffing at something".
