    Sure, we can just assume it’s ASCII, but it seems a bit disingenuous to not tell us what encoding to use and to just let those who don’t know better continue to think that binary is sone kind of language.

        Chances this meme was made without a GUI: 0%

      “gui’s are for idiots”. It was rather unpleasant experience, especially with jpeg quality.

    Gui’s? What letter does the apostrophe replace? Did you mean to say “gui is”?

    So “gui is are for idiots”?

    Maybe the idiot is the one who doesn’t know how apostrophes work?

      the apostrophe may make it a bit clearer… even if technically incorrect usage

        Could have just used propper capitalization of the acronym. Would have been equally clear.

      How would you make GUI plural then? Apostrophe is an attempt to do just that, I believe.

        Easy, add a lowercase s after the acronym: GUIs.

        Apostrophes are only used if the acronym ends with s: SAS’s or alternatively SAS’, both are possible.
