I think you may have gone a bit overboard with that reply, i do agree that language evolves, heck if it wouldn't we'd have far less and different sounding languages. Just compare classic literature to a random blog. Some new words arise, some change and some don't. But there are some rules to that process and it…

A word like decimate has a very clear base in the word decimal, which is of course from the latin word of decem (10).

Hell no it's not ok, in most cases. If it's for a word like 'cool', sure, go ahead, redefine it whenever you feel like it, it won't have any implications. But technical terms arise as a standard so everyone can understand what everyone is talking about, especially in a professional, academic or scientific environment.

hmmm, one of the results was some dude with his face painted like heat ledger's joker....

I agree with that vision on one level, but if you fundamentally look at it, outside of reality there is nothing (we know of or can prove (yet) anyways).

On every page there is a section: 'directions for improvement'. In most of the cases the improvement direction is to do it the 'apple' way explicitly....

a LITTLE different?

There's a difference between not (yet) describing something and the inability to describe something because it's physically impossible.

no, according to my logic, pi has a finite number of decimals.

nope, but it's hard to prove a number exists if you can't describe it.

But there is a finite space in our universe to 'write' them on.

but when you write them in such a manner you a) store bits of data on the paper, b) use the largest describable form on those bits. Which is still what i am suggesting.

If our universe is finite, wouldn't the largest number describable be the maximum number we can store in this finite universe? If you would take every smallest particle in the universe and set it to the largest number it can describe, at some point you can't describe or add another digit in that number. Theoretically…

Forget about the device, i'm stuck on how tasty this cake looks. Anonye any idea what it's called (if it's some 'standard' cake at all...)?

A fish called wanda? LOL, awesome!

I actually end up using "5. A serial cable" a lot while experimenting with electronics and the arduino. Not a useless cable at all!

Do you have a link to this theory?

This is some really bad news, immediately after a reboot that a 1TB drive has died on me :(

Next: scraping off all the match-heads from a box of matches and generating a somewhat larger version of the rocket.
