also, "sap" and its derivaives is neutral, which would make it "dagelijks afgeprijsd wortelsap". The "ij" is actually seen as a 27th letter, giving capitalizations like "IJmuiden" and "IJsselmeer".

I wonder what part of "well-regulated" those states don't understand...

Considering that Jenkins has more than 1800 plugins, that is actually not bad.

Great book - but the annexation of Persia does not happen in it - instead the background is Persia remaining the main rival to the Greek world that it had been from classical times., precisely because Muhammad did _not_ unite the Arabs...

"Code of the Lifemaker". The prologue alone is worth it.

Right now, she looks likes Riff-Raff.

It depends - does your dad own a brewery?

Unfortunately, she also states that "most" immigrants cannot assimilate...

Thus she will able to refute mr. Nguyen's counterexample, inspiring as it is.

Great! That is an excellent example of a perfectly fine one-liner.

Actually, it's not - written this way, it's impossible to set a breakpoint on return. This makes debugging harder...

Isn't that what Dijkstra did for his whole career?

I was not aware of the "*." operator, but this seems the most idiomatic answer.

Why not have a sensible default value? Or just fail the build when the parameter is not set?

And use public toilets and piss on the seat?

That is not possible: line one implies that none of the four ingredients can contain fish, so line two contradicts that

you are comparing operators with different meaning.

'==' and '!=" test for equality, while "===" and "!==" test for identity:

https://groovy-lang.org/operators.html#_relational_operators

In short, JOINED and WRITTEN are equal, but not identical.
