Maybe not all parts of the world have been so deeply 'californicated by Apple' ;-)

What the..
I realize that the court ruling was about private computers, not data on servers, but as you said, it makes a difference if the informations systems you use can be expected to produce 'public' records.
Edit: What I mean by that is - everytime I read FP books, IO is basically what everybody tries to explain on the last few pages and is rather ashamed to do at all. That makes it hard to imagine how those languages come to use in real world scenarios, that's why I'm asking ;-)
Don't eat sugar, any fruits which don't have a Greek or Hebrew name or any liquid which is less than 1,000 years old. (Taleb) ;-)
Actually there's not a 'rest of the text' that is homogenous, unless it's completely uppercase. In normal body copy it's a rhythm of ascending and descending letters, and to that those numerals are meant to fit.
The meaning of 'Lining Figures' is numerals that are spaced proportionally (the opposite of their tabular version). They are a good option in technical texts (as those set with LaTeX typically) where you want to integrate numerals, but still have them stand out. They are also the default numerals in many digital fonts, even if there are the 3 other options as well (it's a 2x2 system of proportional vs monospaced and text numerals vs lining numerals).
Check out Friedrich Gulda's 'Mozart Tapes' for more of it.
There is a notable difference of course between courses like PGM and ML, which go pretty much into details of actual things, while others like AI or crypto will probably naturally stay a bit at the surface, as they are more intended to give an overview. I think they shouldn't be compared therefore. I think the robotics class is a bit behind of it's possibilities compared to PGM or ML, considering that this is definitely not an overview anymore.
