Not that I'm defending them but that will probably put all airliners out of business. Which I hope it would.

I'm killing time right now because there's nothing to do but yet I can't go home and clean up the clutter that's accumulated from being stuck at work all day with nothing to do.

They don't want to deescalate. They already had a big celebration planned in their head for murdering someone before they even do the act. They want to kill people so they can look like some hero. These people are sick and as far as I'm concerned their punishment should equal their crime.

Unfortunate that he got caught. He was simply playing the same game the corps do but since he isn't mega rich he gets punished.

Did you really respond to a 2 month old post just to link your own post "proving" you're right with a screen cap of a search result? What a pathetic loser you must be. Blocked. Fucking retard.

I'm trying to learn programming and something I struggle with the most is trying to separate code mentally into chunks where I can think through the problem. I'm not really sure how to describe it other than when I read a function to determine what it does then go to the next part of the code I've already forgotten how the function transforms the data and I get stuck trying to figure out the solution. So instead I'll often cludge something together just to make it work but I don't feel like I made any progress. Has anybody else run into this issue where they struggle with abstracting code from text to mental instructions?

Edit: Thank you all for the suggestions and advise. I wish I could reply to everyone but there's been a lot of good information given and I have some ways now to try and train my brain to think about how to break down the code. It's also a little reassuring knowing I'm not the first to have these same struggles.
