Welcome to good old DLL hell.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Just installed Lyft on my Adroid.
I believe that I used it once before while in a different town at a trade show, but that was three years ago.
So,,,,,,,
Anybody here got anything to tell me about it before I get a ride home ?
My car finally broke down totally and completely yesterday; probably going to a scrap operation.
I welcome any and all advice, suggestions, warnings, directions, guidance, or whatever else anyone thinks is helpful in this context.

...so he says, "I need the myxl targ plinkle gop to onkatik shoosilfar."* You are confused. You don't understand. He stares at you.
*This sentence may not make sense because it is nonsense. Or it may not make sense because you cannot understand the Genius Principles it contains.
The Questions
1. Is the only reason that you do not understand because you are stupid (not smart enough)?
2. Or, is it possible that you don't understand because Einstein is stupid (not smart enough)?
How could it ever be the case that Einstein is stupid? He is a genius, right?
Well, there are at least four reasons that it may be that even though Einstein is a genius that he is stupid in this case.
1. He cannot communicate clearly what it is that he wants. Even if Einstein understands the extended principles of Quantum Mechanics if he cannot explain them in a way that that someone can understand then he is not a genius. A bit more on that -- Imagine if no one except Einstein ever understood Quantum Physics as he understood it. The world wouldn't have changed. He would've been a babbling idiot.
2. He cannot communicate what he wants to _you_. He is not smart enough (even though he's a genius) to understand how smart you are and alter his message accordingly.
3 He's confounded about why you cannot understand. He cannot tell that he is not communicating clearly to you. "Why don't you understand! It's as plain as the quark on a proton, lepton-brain!" A blind-spot (aka ignorance).
4. You are not actually smart enough to understand, but he has chosen to tell someone this message without identifying the audience in the first place. Not genius-level behavior.
Two Points -- (I'm sure there are many more)
Even if you're a Genius, you better know how to communicate.
Even if you're a Genius, you better know how to communicate to your audience.

When I wrote the nonsense I knew there would be people who would find _some_ meaning behind one or more of the words. I tried very hard to only make those words make "sounds" and not have any meaning.
And that is another entirely separate philosophical discussion:
If you find an alternate meaning to words I use, is it a problem in me (I subconsciously used a word that communicated an alternate message I didn't know) or a problem in you (you pick up on meaning that was never actually there)?
I'm going to say that the problem is in you.

"Targ (noun) Comparable in form to Terran boars but with spikes on their backs. They were usually dark brown, although some were spotted. Targs were generally regarded as "vicious and destructive" animals. Klingons kept domesticated targs as pets and livestock, and hunted wild targs for sport. The meat of the targ – including the heart – was eaten, while their shoulder fat was used to make var'Hama candles."
Klingon Dictionary[^]
Sometimes the true reward for completing a task is not the money, but instead the satisfaction of a job well done. But it's usually the money.

I knew people would find those words, somewhere, in some language.
Didn't expect it to be Klingon.

I only noticed it because the word is so overused in TNG and DS9, usually as a derogatory slang.

Interesting.
I watched a lot of TNG. Was "targ" planted there in the subconscious somehow? What other things do I know that I do not know about?
