E. G. For storage and performs reasons. 5 bytes vs 9 bytes. Multiplying by amount of users and various indexes - can produce very noticeably difference. More records per page.

That is always confusing to me. If I am on a bus stop: “This bus” doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t exist yet. Next bus, is the next occurance of event “Bus”.

If it’s Wednesday, the “this Friday” doesn’t really make sense. There doesn’t exist a Friday in Wednesday, that you call this. Next Friday however is quite clear - it’s next occurrence of event “Friday” on the timeline, so it’s the one in two days.

I never had this feeling. It’s an RPG, I can build and control only my character

So you have memory space which is reused… Which essentially makes it a mutable memory structure, where you update or add with new data keys… No?

Can you please give me an example - let’s say I have a big list of numbers and I need to find how many times each number is there.

I would expect a mutable dictionary/map and a single pass through. How would you do that without mutable datastructure?

So do you create new objects every time you need to change state?

A great example of misrepresentation.

It’s as actively killing anyone as ground actively kills people who jump out of airplane.

Should it be there? No. Is it safe? No.

But painting it as an “actively killing people” is misrepresentation of other group point of view. Thank you for a great example.

Yeah, misrepresentation of other group points of view is strongly represented in both groups

Millions of people on the bus. Some vote to drive to place A. Some want to drive to place B. Neither is the cliff. But both A voters and B voters are using the bus-cliff false analogy to manipulate people to vote for their option.

In reality the chance that your vote would even affect the result is nearly zero.

So what will happen now? Will they magically reconsider their life? Will they be incarcerated? Will they be given a slap on the wrist and have no real consequence?
