I Write Like is a generator that proposes to analyze your writing and compare it to published authors. The above is the result I got when I entered some text from an article I wrote for mental_floss. However, the results do not tell me why my writing resembles James Joyce's prose. Then I entered another sample, this time from an article I wrote for Neatorama.

Again, no explanation for why the results are different. They might even be random. Grab a few paragraphs of your writing and try it out for yourself! Link -via The Daily What

Funny. I didn't know that Mark Twain ignored basic grammatical rules, such as not using real words.
Apparently he could have written this:

And I forgot to add that the time that elapses during processing doesn't even come close to being able to compare the syntax, grammar, word-choice and other claimed functions. It would probably need at least ten seconds to make a reliable analysis, but it doesn't even take half a second, hence no time to compare the text. You can live with narcissism and think that you're as good as Mary Shelley or Dickens, but don't try to defend yourself as a person of common sense for doing so.

I don't think I would call that a motherboard, just a generic printed circuit board. Companies (or one of their humorless departments) may be hesitant to stick random things on their circuit board where someone might see it, so while some are around, they aren't too common in my experience. Although there are collections around of images found on the actual silicon chips and integrated circuits, which normally would not be visible without destructively opening the plastic the chip is embedded in and then using a microscope to look at it.

I was doing a little reverse engineering of a circuit board from Jack Deville - taking each component off and tracing the connections to get an idea how the board worked, and under the main chip was a message 'Concede Defeat, Retain Pride'. I can't imagine too many people would see that, but it made my day.
