Bunch of winers in the comments. This is totally necessary effort - there's nothing worse than the ground moving under your feet. In the end its no longer necessary to expose internals. Strong encapsulation even aids in disciplined development within the JDK.

im often accused of xy problem. Thing is, I want answers to x AND y. So when they've answered y, i ask x, and that makes them mad

We are in a state of war. Don't be lulled by a sense of ease - the stakes have never been higher. If you are not directing your attention, it is being directed for you. Infinite scroll is much more dangerous on phones than on computers. Your breath is den. Good luck.

Tell me you don't buy this?

Re:Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs on Thursday March 15, 2012 @04:16AM (#3707377)
"It astounds me how little senior management gets a basic truth: If clients don’t trust you they will eventually stop doing business with you. It doesn’t matter how smart you are."

What if clients don't trust anyone? Its about risk/reward ratio. Trust/faith went out the window when the scam of a monotheist God gave into the lesser mistake of ubiquitous currency. The religion of the Semites was nursed on trade. Money is the visible face of the Abrahamic God. Its with this righteousness that Goldman Sachs engages in the world with such impunity.

Gone are the lineages of the priestly classes. Gone is the prudent care of the warrior/king caste. The merchants rule in the decadent age. Soon we will be holden to the mind of the sudra slaves.

Nothing but propaganda.
Some people just aren't cut out for society. They're called outcasts and they're either stood on or revered as Gods, in India anyway. Here they're just stood on. Most important is not to have unreasonable expectations of how to fit in. Freedom from hope or fear - that's the goal. Watch your mind - that's the method.
