You are going to learn cool new things along the way: just remember though, when you only know how to use a hammer everything looks like a nail. A better way to think of it is "Do not be clever". Write code in the most obvious pos

I agree it's hard. It's also very valuable. Your example works for my idea too. If you are the source for "The Minnesota checkered sky theory" then the buck stops with you and an investigation of your credibility would b
