The state isn’t a business. Services don’t lose money, they cost money.

Instead of paying your insurance and having them take a profit out of it before providing the service, you pay taxes and the money goes more directly into the service.

Every turn of the wheel would still twist the strap, pulling it tighter

I don’t think they would care about that unless there was a long line and you left no tip.

There are only 4.29 billion possible values of an int32, so even if you used 2 lines for each case, it’d still be under 10 billion lines of code

bool isOdd(int num) {
    if (num == 1)
        { return true; }
    if (num == 2)
        { return false; }
    if (num == 3)
        { return true; }
    …
}

How you express something absolutely does change the amount of information in the message. That’s the foundation of compression.

Bitmap image files tend to be larger than png files, even when they both represent the same image.

1.41421… can be thought of as an expanded form of sqrt(2). In this case, the expansion is to an infinite number of digits.

Im think it was designed with a clock in mind. That’s why it starts with north at the 12:00 position and goes clockwise. I learned it as ‘Never Eat Soggy Waffles’ but I’m sure there are a bunch of these.

Can confirm. I only had a bit of trouble with the last frame but was able to translate perfectly from context.

Unity actually gives any class with the name GameManager a special gear icon. You cant just forgo the cool gear icon!

(Its not too terrible from an organizational standpoint because most of the scripts are attached to game objects. MonoBehavior is a component of GameObject. For instance, you’d never have player movement in the GameManager class, you would put it in the component class attached to the player character GameObject.)
