If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

The WTF per minute is the ONLY valid measurement of code quality we use
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

You do need to have an interface to the interface that interfaces with all the other interfaces.

Easy. Each developer uses their own favourite class libraries.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

You're probably right. I'd bet there's 500 classes that do actual work in that thing, and 17,500 classes that individual developers at Facebook wrote as their own personal, preferred wrapper around them.
How far from the truth can I be?

SPEED UP
A claustrophobic has to travel on train, but the train enters a tunnel immediately after leaving the platform.
Where is the best seat to our friend to sit?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

On the platform.

The best seat for your friend to sit in is one adjoining or facing yours.
The claustrophobic? He can take the bus.

Given any tunnel they go through is always less restrictive than the train carriage he is in the tunnel won't affect his claustrophobia, so he should sit opposite the girl with the biggest boobs.

As the train will be accelerating out of the station, if he sits in the very last seat from the front of the train, he will spend the least time in the tunnel. Conversely, if ha fancies a quick snog with his girlfriend while in the darkness of the tunnel to take his mind off his claustrophobia, then he should sit right at the front to maximize his snog-time.

Yeah, after the class is over they're less likely to make waves.
