The Human Velocipede

Citizens, lend me your ears, for we have been grievously hoodwinked! We stand passive on the precipice of a cultural decay, blind to the grand illusion rolling through our cobbled streets. I speak, of course, of that great modern heresy: the so-called "bi-cyclical."Look upon it and weep! They dare to market this absurd skeletal frame as the next evolution of transit, a sleek alternative to our noble equine companions. Do not be deceived by the slick talk of "efficiency" and "progress." What we are witnessing is nothing short of a coordinated, horseless horse deception—a tragic, mechanical masquerade.The Anatomy of the Soulless Mechanical HorseTo compare a true, majestic stallion to this cold, tubular mockery is an insult to nature itself. A horse possesses a soul, a beating heart, an innate wisdom. What does this soulless mechanical horse offer?Zero Kinship: A horse knows its rider. It breathes, it feels, it shares the burden of the journey. The bi-cyclical? It is a dead thing of iron and rubber. It offers no companionship, only a rigid, indifferent frame that will gladly throw you into a ditch without a single pang of conscience.The Ignominy of the Pedal: Consider the sheer indignity demanded by these demonic wheel contraptions. To move a horse, one commands with dignity. To move these contraptions, a human being must degrade themselves into a frantic, pumping piston—legs flailing, lungs bursting, sweating profusely just to maintain balance on a razor-thin strip of rubber. You are not the master of this machine; you are its engine, its literal captive labor!A Safety Hazard Born of Hubris: A horse has eyes. It will steer you away from a cliffside; it will halt before a treacherous bog. But the demonic wheel contraption? It possesses no eyes, no instinct, no mercy. If you guide it toward a brick wall, it will violently collide with that wall, catapulting you over its handlebars with the cold, unfeeling physics of pure malice.Dismantling the Grand Illusion:Let us pull back the curtain on the great lie perpetuated by the manufacturers of these metallic monstrosities. They call it a "vehicle of freedom." I call it a rolling monument to human regression.A collection of sprockets waiting to rust.Toxic grease, synthetic oil, and the sheer exhaustion of your own thighs.Requires ridiculous tight-fitting garments and a comical styrofoam hat.Two flimsy wheels in a constant, panicked state of falling over. You are not the master of this machine; you are its engine, its literal captive labor!

I personally started out in the mid 90s (I know, I was 10) learning how to code, solder etc etc and it was extremely difficult because the internet was brand new and resources were light (if you could get on at all, being 10, that was tricky for me)...so I used pocket money to buy the occasional book...most of them were crap. I eventually had two reasonably good books, a simple book on HTML and Javascript (it was one of those brightly coloured "in easy steps" books) which was enough to help me understand the source code on other peoples websites by viewing source (which was the common way to learn back then) and a really good book on C/C++ which I wish I still had but I can't remember the author or publisher (it had a boring white cover with a couple of navy blue and red stripes), it had a really good section on reverse engineering (which is a lost art).

The key point is that a lot of learned by reverse engineering other peoples work...that is not a skill that is taught because somehow reverse engineering stuff has become frowned upon. I still reverse engineer things today to help towards figuring something out and it is one of my higher paying skills.
