Perhaps it's your love for all things 'dental'...?

Releasing a game so close to school work or exams can be severely damaging to your study. Happened to me when I got Melee; released 3 days before my summer exams.

Because software development is the greatest hell in the world.

Followed by dentistry.

Probably wanted more money and software dev was boring for you?

Then again, dental work has to be as boring or worse...I should know since I went through ten years of orthodontics. Heck, by the time I got out of there, I probably had a better understanding of it than most people going into the field out of personal experience.

By the by, I'm lucky to make 30K. Envy doesn't describe my feelings about that price over your head right now.

Or maybe it's because some people (Including myself) are having finals next week.

I noticed that too . It makes things boring when you aren't playing Brawl.

I think it's Brawl, but it could also be final exams.

hello world

At least 11 being translated to November makes sense. This defies logic.

what were you looking up? It makes sense if you are converting 0-based indexing into what most people start counting with?

oh, I like being a software dev. I think your workplace environment makes a whole lot of difference whether you love or hate being one.

This is what I was translating. Pay attention to the numbering on the two tables.

Rofl. I got a similar one once:

Not only did it translate "4" to "Four" but it completely failed* the names of the days.

*Technically, it didn't translate them wrong, it just failed to realize this block was a calendar. Which should have been pretty obvious.

Did you not notice the "Suggest a better translation" on each screenshot, neo?

In fact, I somehow suspect that someone messing with that was the cause of the 9=10 thing.

All the things about mistranslations or oddities using Google Translator is just interesting. I can't believe something like that can happen, but since when has anything been perfect.

I want more food ...
