Programmers often describe computers as "stupid."

When they say this, they (usually) aren't insulting computers.

In spoken languages, we can craft sentences with a great deal of ambiguity.

Computer programming languages are designed to limit ambiguity, but sometimes this can result in issues between the programmer and the machine.

我們常常會說電腦很笨，但這其實不是在污辱電腦而是表示我們寫的程式要很明確地讓電腦瞭解，不像人的對話有模糊空間。
