    My old boss is one of the 3 initial creators of Java. He ran our department the same way this greentext reads.

    He was also a paedo. You can figure out the rest if you dig.

      It’s written pedo. I don’t know where the “paedo” thing came from.

        From PIE root “pau-” (few, little), to Latin-transliterated via Greek “paed” (boy, child), and spelled thusly to distinguish from “ped-” (foot), circa 1600AD. Reduced to “pedo” from “paedo” as part of the shift in Americanization of accents and spelling in the late 1700s early 1800s.

        Confidently incorrect.
