Only someone wanting to be extreme or someone who just wants to argue
apparently would say that.
I have written a fair chunk of C code that won't compile as C++.
Who cares. All that matters is what I meant.
Which I can't determine without knowing what you think the word "actuary"
means. Or without you telling me.
Don't compare IQs with me, cuz
you'll lose.
Not possible with currently-available technology. I might not win, but
it is flatly impossible for me to lose.
It doesn't matter what it means. All that matters is what I meant.
Well, that's an interesting question. It might also matter whether other
people can tell what you meant, and whether their guesses will be accurate.
When you use words in ways other than the ways most people use them, the
chances of accurate guesses go down sharply.
Yes, this was a test of your intuitive capability, of which it is determined
that you have none.
Uh, no. You think I have none. In fact, I have some; the distinction isn't
whether or not I can exercise intuition, but whether I mistake intuition and
speculation for knowledge. You apparently feel that your intuitions are
unquestionable revealed truth. I consider them speculative, and prefer not to
rely on them when I don't have to.
(Are we having fun yet?!)
I wouldn't know.
