First learned programming ALGOL 60 on an Elliot 803 installed at RMIT in mid 1960s in Melbourne Australia. By correspondence; sent in code to be punched into paper tape by RMIT; certainly was a slow turn around for fixing typos/bugs.

ALGOL 60 at 60: The greatest computer language you've never used and grandaddy of the programming family tree

Boffins find sign of water existing deep into Earth's mantle by looking at diamonds
Using pressure to turn stuff into water.
Last year, I think it was, an article was published in (New Scientist?), in which it was shown using computer modelling, that under huge pressure deep down beneath the earth’s crust, elements/compounds such as silica could be transformed into water.
Finding water in diamonds supports this hypothesis.

Apple’s facial recognition: Well, it is more secure for the, er, sleeping user
Apple said the chance of defeating TouchID was 1 in 50,000 and the chance of defeating FaceID was 1 in 1,000,000.
Apple also said the evil twin/lookalike would be required to enter the password of the genuine owner. Also, the FaceID was intelligent enough to adapt to changes in owner’s face over time, including the growing a beard. Photos won't work because they don't have physical depth and are not heat/infrared pictures.

Hardcore creationist finds 60-million-year-old fossils in backyard ... 'No, it hasn’t changed my mind about the Bible'
Set aside disbelief…
Set aside your disbelief in God’s integrity for a moment and embrace reason.
Can you evo-creationists tell us how a live fish became fossilised in sedimentary rock and now appears above water level on dry ground?
And what about all those countless fossils of animals, trees, etc. that clearly live on land? How on earth did so many fossils become trapped in sedimentary rock, high and dry on dry land?
Clearly this is not a process of slowly putting down many layers of sediments over millions of years as many evolutionists imagine, is it?
Creationist: The Flintstones was an accurate portrayal of Dino-human coexistence
Atheists call their imagination science.
Atheists imagine the universe was created by the superhuman forces of nature. Creationists have good reason to believe those superhuman forces of nature were actually created by the Son of God and will be sustained by Him until they they wear out are replaced. There is plenty of evidence in the Bible of his ability to do the things which atheists imagine are magical, but which you'd naturally expect an intelligent God who created the laws of nature to be able to do, e.g. turn water into wine, raise himself from the dead after crucifixion, etc. etc. etc.
