    I think the question is how is this drawn on a canvas. It's not trivial, if I draw 6 shapes successively, one will be on top and another at the bottom, you would not see the tip of…

    Yes, that's why I thought OP's idea of explicitly separating the derived "better" questions interesting, instead of allowing anyone to edit the original question and steer the disc…

    Sometimes the asker is missing a concept, and it's not always impossible to comment about it and rephrase the question to make it answerable & more useful to keep for posterity. It…

    I upvoted because I find the idea of an explicit third stage interesting. But SO does offer the ability for experts to edit questions already, in order to keep the simple Q&A forma…

    First one was aptly closed IMHO, much too vague. SO is not the right tool for absolute beginners to seek guidance when they have no idea what they're doing: the format asks for a r…

    Yes! Unit test code! I avoid humor in main code, but in unit test code when you have to come up with dummy bits of test data or variable names, I love getting funky there :)

    Reminds me of "Don't kick a man when he's clown"; Google finds 2 PDFs with this, due to bad OCR: https://www.google.com/search?q="Don't+kick+a+man+when+he's+... Credit: https://twi…

    It's not just about code. In any non-trivial system you have a bunch of components, and any minor occurrence of "bad design" that affects boundaries, protocols, configuration, depl…

    Wow look at those plan names: "go unlimited", "beyond unlimited", "above unlimited"... WTF does that mean?

    Ah, yes, right, sorry. I understand now what you were after. Agree there would have been (is?) an interesting potential there too.
