Damn. Good point.

My favorite project was C++; it was big, it was complicated, there was a massive team working on it, I got to work with high level abstractions while occasionally dealing with really low level concerns.

It was really hard, but now writing code in every other language I've worked in has been really easy.

Missionary for Mormon church enters the chat

The Word of Wisdom, which outlines the health guidelines of not drinking alcohol and using tobacco, as well as eating less meat, eating more grains; was originally just as the name suggests, words of wisdom.

Joseph Smith drank wine, used tobacco, and drank coffee up to his death.

It wasn't until the early 20th century when it started to be treated as a commandment. This is around the time when they started codifying a lot of doctrine, stopped practicing polygamy, and started to function more like a mainstream religion and less like a cult.

Source: raised Mormon, went on mission, took religion classes at BYU-Provo on church history.

Technically it's a different cult! The same insanity; this time with guns! Woo, America!

It's even crazier than that, duckduckgo Rod of Iron Ministries and Moonies. It's a church started by the son of a massive cult leader after his father died and there was a power struggle in the cult.

When does something become mainstream? The Steam Deck has sold millions of units.

But guys, if we use agile then we don't need requirements! We just make something and then the customers tell us if we are on the right track, we just get to iTeRaTe

Now we are getting into the quantum physics question of if the universe is discrete or continuous. Which seems to be unsolved.

So I guess that's my answer. If the universe is discrete then there are finite genders, and if it's continuous then there could be infinite genders.

I'm no mathematician, but I don't think that's how it works. A quick Google says there are 100 billion neurons. So you would have 100000000000! possible combinations, unfathomably large, but finite. Granted, a human brain is more complex than the configuration of neurons, but I don't know how it becomes infinite.

I'm also way past the point of overthinking this.

I thought something similar, but the human brain is finite, so I don't think a single person could have an uncountably infinite gender; unfathomably large, maybe, but it would still be finite.

Edit: I'm not trying to be bigoted here. If someone does identify that way I don't want to discredit your identity.

Yeah, I got to that point in my thinking and then just gave up and posted my first thought.
