Actually a good point, tho. And also a good thought: If there is no special direction, what would be up? And that's where quantum mechanics gets even weirder: It's either up or down in the direction you measure.

Gravity isn't a force tho...

Obviously, the apartment with the Confederate flag has a swastika inside.

USB plugs are spinors: They need a 4π rotation until they reach their initial orientation.

But you don't remove the appendix preemptively, but if it's medically necessary - same way circumcision should work.

I think the main advantages over C are:

  • better tooling
  • modern syntax
  • by default, pointers must be non-null. You have to specify if you want to use null pointers
  • better exception handling using the functional style of exceptions-as-values

There are probably more, but those are the ones I remember.

You don't use exponentially more fuel, but cubically. Exponentially is not just a word for "quickly", but a function.
And anyways, that isn't only the case for speeds higher than 80, but for every higher speed. So it's not like there is an objective sweet spot.

And it definitely looks it. That is, shitty.

to me it feels like keeping distance instead of having a good relationship, only second to "sir".
