Das ist ein großartiges Zitat, Danke! 🙏
Und den klugen #Chesterton lese ich immer wieder gerne! Hättest Du mir eine Quelle für dieses Zitat? Am liebsten als Buch?
«Ciò che comunemente chiamiamo mondo intellettuale si divide in due categorie di persone: coloro che venerano l’intelletto e coloro che lo usano. Vi sono eccezioni, ma, solitamente, non si tratta delle stesse persone. Coloro che usano l’intelletto non lo venerano, lo conoscono troppo bene. Coloro che venerano l’intelletto, non lo usano, come è dimostrato dai discorsi che fanno quando parlano»
Chesterton, riproposto da Cristiano Nisoli
À l’Épiphanie, l’or, l’encens et la myrrhe disent l’essentiel de la foi chrétienne
"It tingled with truth and it divided truth from error with a blade like ice; but all that was left had never felt so much alive. It was as if all joy were a jewel in the heart of an iceberg. The priest hardly understood his own mood as he advanced deeper and deeper into the green gloaming, drinking deeper and deeper draughts of that virginal vivacity of the air. Some forgotten muddle and morbidity seemed to be left behind, or wiped out as the snow had painted out the footprints of the man of blood. As he shuffled homewards through the snow, he muttered to himself: 'And yet he is right enough about there being a white magic, if he only knows where to look for it.'"
- G. K. Chesterton, "The Dagger with Wings"

A quotation from G. K. Chesterson
For there are two ways of dealing with nonsense in this world. One way is to put nonsense in the right place; as when people put nonsense into nursery rhymes. The other is to put nonsense in the wrong place; as when they put it into educational addresses, psychological criticisms, and complaints against nursery rhymes or other normal amusements of mankind.Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) English journalist and writer
Essay (1921-10-15), “Child Psychology and Nonsense,” closing words, Illustrated London News, “Our Notebook” column

The choice of language isn't going to help much if the people writing the rusty replacements for decades-old tools don't bother to understand the security issues and attack surfaces that led to the design of those tools in the first place.
Similarly, Linux distributions shipping #screensaver implementations that are essentially nothing but a login-bypass mechanism that wastes CPU/GPU cycles.
