It's funny to reread my old posts. Turns out I didn't really write stuff, it's more of me taking huge chunk of Wikipedia article to the blog, before putting my short comment and then asking random people's opinion on the subject 😅. I know that was a bit absurd, but the two subjects about which I borrowed Wiki'
