Not to worry, I'm sure Marvel and the movie execs don't see the death of a lead actor as any sort of impediment for moving on and exploiting Black Panther after a quick recast job, and turning it into a franchise of its own with 18 sequels and prequels, and in the process make billions more until they run the whole thing into the ground. As long as they have the 5-second dedication banner at the end of the next installment, they're good. And they'll be wiping their tears with those billions, claiming they're "honoring his memory", and "that's how he would've wanted us to carry on".
Me, cynical? Never.

Yesterday I went to a retirement party. It was a small, outdoor gathering of a few dozen people. It was at least a hundred degrees (38C ?) so I was wearing shorts.
One person jokingly remarked, "good heavens, your legs are white."
I replied, "I bet you didn't notice I'm wearing socks."
I supplied the downbeat. bah dum, tiss.

Cement overshoes? Resting with the fishes? Or something more original?
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Yes.
It's just you.
Me? I can find anything, provided it's where I put it.
Move it a couple of inches, and I'm lost ... and so is it.

For me, sometimes I put few important things way too nicely to not find them easily after few days.

I have reached the age where I only need one movie.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

This happens often enough with code that I often find it easier to regoogle a solution rather than trying to remember where I last used it.

True, I too have done this at times.

The worst bit is when you google for a solution, find a CP article, read it, and think it's exactly what you wanted ... and then notice you wrote it. 
I've done that a couple of times now.

Problem with that is... that this will increase the difficulty to find it again with the time, because a bunch of code monkeys will post their cool "wheel reinventions" and your search will list 2x or 3 times more hits than it was and probably the most of them will be utterly crap.
