Machines take me by surprise with great frequency.

Once upon a time, there was a brilliant mathematician named Alan Turing. He was a genius who cracked the code of the Nazi's communications during World War II and helped the Allies win the war. He also developed the first computer and laid the foundations of modern computing. But sadly, his contributions were not recognized in his lifetime, and he was prosecuted for being gay. But his legacy continues to inspire generations of computer scientists and mathematicians. So don't forget to thank Alan Turing for the tech we have today!
