Agreed. A lot more time and money will be wasted trying to automate this. A CPA is not that expensive.

Doesn't the interest come from the extra value that was created in the economy from that debt?

I just got used to it eventually (I've used mine for 2 years now). Only key I changed was insert. I haven't gotten the pedals yet, but looking into it [0]. Maybe those can help make things less awkward? [0] https://www.

To me, it's not that clear that you are talking about a family member. Do you work in California, New Jersey, or Rhode Island? You may qualify for paid leave. edit: if not FMLA may protect your job for 12 weeks, though it is unpaid ht

I don't think a 10% tariff would account for the entire increase. It may be part of it though.

So then we can add the of the cost of health care, on top of the legal cost, and not to mention time wasted of all those involved. Sounds great! It's probably better to come up with an effective regulation if possible. Also it seems th

Make lobbying illegal, and make representatives more accountable to their constituents? Decentralize the government more, and make it more state and local instead of federal?

I think the real reason is people are realizing bitcoin, as it exists today, has no real utility, and solves no real problems. Also most of the speculators have lost so much money they're not touching it with a 100 ft pole. Its value i

A lot of OOP languages have added method references, and lambdas in this day and age.

These examples are supposed to be examples, not what we would actually do in this specific case. In a huge enterprise system that has 500 different ways something could be done, in which your function would have 30 million if statements, al

You could even serialize the Hit classes and throw them on a message bus, and have them automatically applied across the network or something.

I think damage to the weapon could still be handled in the Hit class, because Hit has a reference to Player and Monster and Weapon. You could even create different types of Hit classes that could execute different kinds of Hit behavior like

> Encouraging complexity Picking a satire piece on how something can be abused is not a great argument of "this thing is bad". For example, I'd argue anything written in an OOP language is going to be more readable than th

The Hit class may be a Singleton and only instantiated once. Creating a class is like 3 actual lines. Also at least in Java the Hit class can be an inner class of the Person class. It just feels like name spacing in that case. It is needles

A lot of languages are made for this kind of interaction and can inline stuff hopefully, but that's the job for the VM or compiler. I didn't say it was the "right" way to do it. Also programming is the art of tradeoffs.

> The vast majority of essential code is not operating on just one object – it is actually implementing cross-cutting concerns. Example: when class Player hits() a class Monster, where exactly do we modify data? Monster's hp has to

I always like to use flight as an analogy. When we tried to copy nature, we failed pretty hard but when we came up with our own way it worked out best. Computers are not like human brains. We are in the process of inventing a new kind of in

Whenever I'm severed from the internet or news there is no withdraw symptoms what-so-ever. I don't even think twice about it. It's strange.

Learning to accept things you cannot change is one of the hardest things I've had to learn growing up. Constant black and white thinking and cognitive distortions [0] all will increase your anxiety. Realize these emotions' utility
