if you combine the ratings for Discovery and Knuckles, you get to the third position on the chart. Paramount, you know what must be done…

you’ll pry my END command from my cold, dead hands…
if i had a nickel for every time Spock faced off against a unique species of cat-like predator from Vulcan, i’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice
rexx is my favorite programming language. it’s an interpreted language similar to python but it has actual visible block delimiters instead of going by indentation. the error handling system is also very convienent. the reason it probably faded into obscurity is it’s wild cowboy take on typing- EVERYTHING is a string until you try to use a math function on it. i get that it’s unrealistic for writing anything performance-sensitive but for writing shell scripts and utilities it is unmatched in it’s simplicity. it definitely comes closer than anything else i’ve ever seen to the COBOL ideal of resembling natural speech. the rexx interpreter was a default feature on the amiga and i think also os/2 but these days it’s really only ever used on mainframes and the few open source implementations for desktops and servers are a bit clumsy which is a real shame
“No, you should totally go on this one, captain. Take the XO too. We’ll be fine. We’re all far too busy, uh, reversing the polarity of the deflector dish, and we definitely deleted the template for Romulan ale from the replicators for good this time. Also the transporter is on the fritz so you should probably take a shuttle, and then stay down there and see the sights to make it worth it.”
