    I've been tasked with making changes to a project with 50,000+ lines of code, I'm pretty new to Scala and I'm finding it damn near impossible to keep track of the hundreds of class…

    Why is it good that no more can be printed though? The value of all total goods in existence is not fixed, so why a currency where you don’t know how much you’ll able to buy with i…

    I can’t stand the thought of lifting weights. So I just don’t do it. It’s never crossed my mind to write a 5000 word essay about it.
