Should you never trust stairs, because they are always up to something?

You can only trust them when you're at the bottom. Then they're only on the up and up.

Well that escalated quickly!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

I would trust them, they've always seemed fairly down to earth to me.

I'm surprised that this thread stayed straight, and did not spiral out of control.

Apparently they outlawed stairs and police are taking steps.

Yes, you should. I'll explain ladder.
I've had my ups and downs lately.

So, after a lifetime developing software in all the variations of the C language, and for the last year in Java (specifically JavaFX), I decided that it's time to master the art of developing apps for Android mobile devices.
I bought the Kindle version of "Android Studio 4.2 Development Essentials". I found it to be an excellent starting point as it describes in detail how to configure both your Windows system and your Android phone so that you can write and transfer apps to your phone.
At one point you must convert the phone so it will accept transfers in debug mode from your computer. The moment I did this, the phone declared:
"Congratulations! You are a developer now!"
At last, after 45 years in the business, I am at last a developer! 
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Have you tried enabling that option again? The ensuing message is equally amusing.

Congratulations!
If I only had known that before...
Just tapping the Build Number 7 times
instead of wasting my time with learning, reading documentation, developing etc.

|

 Did that and all I got was "Developer mode now enabled".
It clearly knew who I was!

Maybe Cp-Coder tapped the Build Number more thoroughly than you?

This image is the pulley arrangement of a Precor C024ES machine.

I think the arrangement produces a 2:1 mechanical advantage, but empirical testing is causing me to doubt the exact number.

That arrangement gives no mechanical advantage. It just redirects the direction of the force.
Pulleys with mechanical advantage are an assembly where one of the wheels is suspended from the other.
