It burns when I poop
Yeah fr sometimes I need to sit on a problem for a week or talk with coworkers or other teams before a solution presents itself. Programming isn’t just writing code, that’s practically the last step.
Hell I spend most of my day just reading the old code and the docs just in case I find an opportunity to massively optimize things, and those have been some of my best projects.
If they wanted me to use a specific tool or lack thereof they should have said that. Instead they said “fix this problem” and instead of writing the entire codebase from the ground up I used the tools that were available to me so I could focus on fixing the problem instead of fixing the fix to fix the fix for the fix of the problem.
Supernatural phenomena is possible but not probable.
The only “supernatural” thing I believe in is reincarnation, and that’s just a game of numbers. I believe we’re on the verge of discovering that black holes birth new universes. Then your existence and rebirth just becomes a statistical eventuality. From your POV you would die and then immediately be aware of your next life; since death is a state of non-being, an infinite amount of time could pass between those two moments but you wouldn’t experience any of it. So, it isn’t really even supernatural since I don’t believe anything like karma or whatever mediates the process.
Just like the rest of us
Yes, if. The whole thing hinges on whether or not black holes are actually universes. I feel that we will answer this question, and soon. Reincarnation is just what naturally follows after. But until we can lick black holes, it remains in the territory of the supernatural for now, since its all speculation and conjecture with no supporting evidence.
