Take me down to the PropertyCity where the SelectFoliage is #008000 and the HumanFemales.young(pretty)
Oh won't you please take me 127.0.0.1
Oh won't you please take me localhost??
no place like ~/
Why are females typed differently than males instead of a base class human with a gender identity parameter? Why would human anything have a function called young?? What would that function even do????
The young method returns a boolean parameter. Females have a different type for obvious biological discrepancies that require extra functionality.
I can accept your second point, but in your PR I would absolutely request you to rename the method to
isYoung
, and then in making said comment I would then ask… what value isYoung providing, and where is the line between young and !young ultimately for trying to get the dev to reevaluate the design. It’s hyper specific in an obtuse manner and I think it hints at design flaws especially with the perspective of product evolutionHumanFemales and HumanM both inherit from the Ape base class, it's from an older java code base. We tried to change it once but it turned out the person that had written had retired and any changes we made just broke stuff.
Haha, I like this answer!
Could be a subclass. However, it should just be an 'is' method which is passed the array of [young, pretty] as input
I’m more of a mountain guy so #4a522e or #3d7435 really do it for me. But hey, you do you.
Not really relevant, but I used to think Axl was singing "take me down to the very last city".
New Destiny lore just dropped.
