Nop, I just saw the film some days ago. If I recall correctly that is said by the trainer of the guardians island.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Sounds like travelling with Southwest Trains, but they barely crawl, let alone fly.

It'll never solve it like that...whatever you do, DO NOT CLICK on the cube!

Gave it a try yesterday, it is almost impossible, and I can finish a cube in usually 2 min.

That because, when you hold your cube in your hand, you hold it in a way that helps you solve it. With that Google-cube it spins around like a...

I wonder what data they are collecting from this, and what they'll do with it. I had a play, but it's just ot the same as a physical cube. I messed up what I'd done after getting all corners and all but three edges in the right place.

Too late... I saw, I clicked, I was conquered. Fortunately I have to leave shortly for a few days of training in Las Vegas, so I have an escape hatch. The PC doesn't have a long enough cord to reach that far.

A man, whose level of drunkenness was bordering on the absurd, stood up to leave a bar and fell flat on his face.
"Maybe all I need is some fresh air," thought the man as he crawled outside.
He tried to stand up again, but fell face first into the mud.
"Screw it," he thought. "I'll just crawl home."
The next morning, his wife found him on the doorstep asleep.
"You went out drinking last night, didn't you?" she said.
"Uh, yes," he said sheepishly. "How did you know?"
"You left your wheelchair at the bar again."
It's an OO world.

Not sure about re-post. And even if it is, it made me laugh on Monday morning An upvote for that !

Key-Value Options:
Let's say you have a function that can take a bunch of options for how to build something, say some auto-generated HTML, when passing them as parameters is just too cumbersome? Personally, I would just put all the options into a struct and pass an instance of the struct into the function. The nice thing about that is, the struct (or class, if you wish) documents all the possible options.
Now, in the land of Ruby, I see everybody everywhere using key-value pairs associated with symbols, like this:
{option1: true, option2: "foobar", option3: 42}
Now of course the symbols usually have some intelligent meaning, but you have absolutely no clue what these optional parameters are unless you look up the online documentation (if it exists) and then can be sprawled across numerous pages on the website.
And worse, in the Ruby code, these options are of course usually tested using the symbol:
if opts[:option1] ... end
such that, if you mistype the "key" (symbol), nothing is going to complain to you, unless the programmer checks the option list for unknown options, which I have NEVER seen done.
Now, there's lots of alternatives in the, say, C# world. Your function can take a variable number of parameters. You can require that the caller provides a callback for resolving options. You can just put everything into the function's parameter list, and so forth. Or, like Rubyists, you can pass in a dictionary or some such thing of options.
Valueless Options (aka flags):
So far, the above discussion deals with options that have associated values. There is also the issue of "valueless" options -- if the "key" is present, then the option is "selected." One of the most common ways of passing in valueless options to a function in most languages is of course with an enum, especially when you can use the "or" operator to combine multiple valueless options. Now, mind you, in Ruby, there is no concept of an enum, which is a serious drawback in my opinion.
But I'm curious what people consider to be their own best practice.

I would have to go with wrapping the parameters in a struct/class. That way, I can put all sorts of validation in there that gives the object some context.

My thinking as well. Thank you for the response!
