Policies like that are about treating the addicts, not the distributors. I absolutely agree on that practice with regards to addicts, but we still need to go after the distributors of these lethal, destructive drugs.

Not sure that's true. Here's a US gov doc reporting on the Sinaloa drug cartel trafficking fentanyl.

The fentanyl crisis in America – fueled in large part by the Sinaloa cartel

From the link.

There's a really big difference between a college kid dealing weed to his friends and a fentanyl distributor. There are some substances you just can't allow to move freely through the country.

Are you aware of how little fentanyl it takes to kill someone? How badly heroin addiction changes people and ruins their lives? I am absolutely in favour of more lax rulings on recreational drugs, but not ones so completely destructive and destabilizing.

What? You expect the FDA to conduct raids on cartels trafficking fentanyl and heroin?

Honestly I don't get why this is so surprising, humans have been drawing graffiti for thousands of years. There's plenty of Ancient Roman graffiti to attest to that.

While yes, we should discourage it where possible, we also need to acknowledge that it's just as big a part of human nature, and culture, as the colosseum itself.

Burning it would release too many fumes, sink the bastard and turn it in to a new coral reef for marine life.

But that's functionally no different than what's already there...

The reason the lines are so long isn't because of anything Java related, it's because of the field names themselves.

That is an interesting point, but it's not Java specific, you could do this exact thing in most other languages and it would look pretty much the same.

Considering the fact that in a lot of enterprise projects the data structures are not necessarily open to change, how would you prevent reaching through objects like this?

This just tells me you don't use Java. Factory classes are just used to create objects in a standardized way, but this code isn't creating anything, it's just getting nested fields from already instantiated objects.

Sure, but most of the lines in the screenshot break down to:

object1.setA(object2.getX().getY().getZ().getI().getJ().getK().getE().getF(i).getG().toString())

Aside from creating a method inside the class (which you should probably do here in Java too) how would another language do this in a cleaner way?

If you honestly believe the standard, sterile, grandma-friendly, value-brand emojis typically available to mobile devices convey tone and response in the same way then nothing I could say would convince you otherwise.

That's not to mention the fact that non-mobile devices typically have no emoji keyboard available.

We unironically need these Twitch/pepe emotes to spread further, they're great for quickly and easily conveying a tone or emotion.

There's a massive range of these emotes that we're all missing out on... Madge
