Since I've had A GMC pickup and other vehicles, that were mixed SAE & Metric.

I see people write "pacific" when they mean "specific". The list goes on and on and on.

It's not typos, these people are poorly educated. Of course, when you point these things out, instead of taking the time to learn so they don't look idiotic, they call you "grammar nazi". Yeah, keep being stupid.
This sort of thing is often likely due to autocorrect features. I am bad about pointing out poor grammar, but I can completely understand errors made for this reason and have made them myself (the iPhone and iPad autocorrect features, and perhaps some others as well, can be horrible).

Use your phone's camera to solve equations with PhotoMath - CNET
The developer calls it the world's first camera calculator.



With PhotoMath, you can simply snap a picture of a math equation and it instantly delivers the answer, while also providing step-by-step instructions on how to solve it.

The second video promulgates that ashkenazi jews were bred for handling of money ability, and scholarship (rich daughter marries smart boy), while catholics always constructed their hierarchies with the dumbest at the top (eldest son, no matter how stupid).

Same guy says that Northeast Asia has very high IQ, but doesn't explain why.

Remember how important "breeding" was to the WASPs of America?

WASPs avoided catholics like the plague.

Hitler, too, was into the breeding trend.
