I think Pen vs mouse isn't the issue. To me, the question is: did you do it all yourself, to the last line (including choosing the thickness, the color… of it all), or did something do it on your behalf, based on higher level instructions?
When you draw by hand, you are directly responsible for everything that ends up being on the paper. Nothing ends up there that you did not deliberately put there. So you get to know every what every single line, every single line style is for. You wouldn't put them there otherwise.
When you draw with the computer, you ask it for something, and it produces some output. But what makes computers efficient is that they do a lot of the work for you. So you do not digitally draw every single pixel yourself. You ask for a screw, a window, a light fixture, and you get one. It's much faster (and possibly prettier), but you are not necessarily getting familiar with every single piece of the drawing that gets produced when you ask for one.
If architects (or mechanical engineers, for that matter) don't really need to know what a thick or thin line is for, or what the parts in the drawing of a window or of a ventilation system mean, then they don't need to draw my hand. But if they do, I'd argue that learning drawing by hand does matter. (Or in some pixel art program, but ain't anybody got time for that.) Once you do know it all, use whatever too, but start by learning the basics of your craft, thoroughly.
Automation on top of understanding is great. Automation instead of understanding is fast, until it's a source of mistakes and confusion.
I don't think virus is a 4th declension noun, and I've seen it described in multiple sources as a 2nd declension (meaning slime, poison, infection, mucus, or something thereabout). It is unusual in being a -us noun despite being neuter, but irregularities happen (other examples of neuter 2nd declension -us nouns being vulgus and pelagus). In classical Latin, it is a mass/uncountable noun, and only got the modern meaning (and the ability for form plurals) in recent times.
That said, your point about virulent vs virolent is interesting, but I don't know enough about sound changes, or how that word came to be and made it's way to us to know if this is counter evidence to being 2nd declension, or if it can be explained away otherwise.
All the above is correct. Additionally, it is important to understand that W3C isn't wholly hosted at MIT. MIT is one of 4 co-hosts (the others being Keio University in Japan, Beihang university in China, and ERCIM in France), though MIT is the central hub of that relationship.
The documented reasoning and references do not make any sense. Older browsers are going to choke on newer syntax regardless. This is an ongoing issue in the JS domain that is managed reasonably well via e.g. polyfills, tooling and rapid release. Often with code bloat initially, sure, but the browsers catch up. The days of "oldIE" are long gone.
The point of the declaration is to tell the browsers that can handle the syntax to handle it. Another method could be to use a new linking method. Regardless, the language would still gracefully degrade as only the newer syntax would require strict rules in place.
Please explain it to me if I am completely missing the point.
That country could have an interestingly named neighbor: if Ireland and Scotland band together, they could be the United Republic of Ireland and Northern Great Britain.
I like that Chinese one because I am working on a project involving Chinese text now and because it is written in three character sets: English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
Ah, that's why the Chinese appears twice. I didn't see a difference between them (not that I was looking hard).
A question for you, the Chinese characters seem very much more complex eg 但也包括雜誌, which makes me wonder if they're meant to be read at the same font size as the english text or if they'd typically be printed larger?
Also, the full stops and commas seem to be used in Chinese text, as these inherited from european script or did they always exist in some form?
Chinese text is usually the same size as English text: I think people just get used to the vague shape of them and don't actually need to see every stroke precisely.
Only the period 。 and the enumeration comma 、 existed before European influences.
For the font size, it's kind of the same, kind of not. The numerical value of the font sized used is typically the same, but Chinese characters fill the allocated space more thoroughly.
