And there's no study to be found there.

Dude spends a day’s calories to hoist that cut stone 30 feet in the air

Hum... 4000kcal is ~16MJ, what would lift about 160 thousand kg by those 10m.

But yeah, it's missing all the components. Also, isn't the wheel supposed to be on the ground? What lifts the wheel into the top of the wall?

What's the size of that car?

The one option that is mandated by an ISO standard.

Besides, if max and min are going to have a value without any parameter, it has to be exactly those Javascript uses. Unless you have a type that define other bounds for your numbers. And null always have a pointer type (that is object in Javascript), for the same reason that NaN always have a number type.

The only one that is bad on that list is D.

The OP's idea here is that since A is stopped, C has plenty of time to enter the roudabout. That's reasonable if the roudabout is large, and crazy if it's not.

Your idea that C can enter anyway, even if A didn't stop is just crazy.

A does have the right of way over C. And the OP has a quite violent interpretation of transit rules that only make sense if it's a large roundabout with a low speed.

Also, the pink car has the right of way over both. Both are quite right at stopping there, and D is invited to keep stressing themselves to death.

Now, if the pink car decided to stop and wait for A, then it maybe is worth pointing it to them.

Well, there's no "insulator". There are only semiconductors.

That snippet can't represent the real world:

but the player we did kill was so pissed

I actually only found that one. But well, it's unambiguous :)

EDIT: Hum... "Pissed" has another meaning that would be possible IRL. So I'm retreating my certainty here.

Those arms have a complex non-planar geometry, but I guarantee they are realizable even in an Euclidean space. Try it again.

Apart from dynamically typed languages which need to store the type with the value

You know that depending on what your code does, the same C that people are talking upthread doesn't even need to allocate memory to store a variable, right?

I have never met that kind of person that won't accept a short answer that actually answers a question.

What I have seen plenty of is people that are completely sure nobody else will accept short answers. They specifically will always accept it, of course, but nobody else.

Just because aliens did the last 86 strange stuff they went to investigate, it doesn't mean they also did the next one.

She just believe in statistical independence between their episodes.
