No need to be so pedantic. Regardless of the binary-ness of the situation, there is still always an analog component. For something to become binary there needs to be a threshold, a majority has it's threshold set to 50%. If one then passes the threshold, but barely, then one could say that there is "barely a majority". This concept can be extended to vast majority (i.e. ~75%) and what I meant with vast vast majority is that some percentage (well over 50%) of Americans fall into that category. Probably asymptotically approaching 100% given the way the World populace is headed...
Btw, not all programmers are computer science/information theory types. There are those of us who are real electrical engineers who realize that a transistor has infinite states and it is only a simplification that we see it as binary; greatly reducing the complexity of computer style circuit design.
I am an American. I could have written this when I was 8 or 9 when I started playing with QBasic and all that shit. Not all Americans are stupid. Just the vast vast majority.
That is because "hi" is not a word (in this context)... It is certainly an exception to the rule "put a damn apostrophe on a word when you want to make it all possessive like". If it were not an exception then "his car", "snowsmanns car", and "its car" would all be correct. But "his" is another word entirely, "its" is a form of the word "it".

I refuse to read TFA, what are these fancy new algorithms they are using?

No equating...just pointing out a correlation. Most of America is stupid. Most of America can't code. You assumed I implied causation.

^^ Why troll? This is kinda funny...
It's turtles all the way down!

Thanks AC Grammar Nazi!
No oblig anything... a freaking shark with a freaking laser on it's head...
I suppose that because N. Korea failed to launch them correctly... a jet which fails to protect correctly is fitting...
This is one of the FIRST times you saw something outside /. first? You must be new here... (-;
Position of the moon... weird. It looks like some kind of test script that probably shouldn't be there anymore... lol
now this means we can create bender from futurama some day, with his crazy bendy arms and all
