I'm an astronomer, and I teach at a Catholic college (though I'm not religious myself).

@sundogplanets In modern Irish the word for computer is 'ríomhaire', which derives from the Old Irish 'rímaire', which was someone (a monk) who computed things such as the position of celestial bodies and the timing of Easter. https://www.ria.ie/2020/03/05/inside-a-history-of-ireland-in-100-words-riomhaire/
