Imagine one person holding up a pillar of stone, the base area of the person's width, and higher then one man. So maybe 50cm X 50cm X 300cm of solid stone. That's more than double the weight of the person itself, probably more than 5 times.
It's a programming joke. If you declare variables or set a value to a space in the storage, this space is blocked even after the programme is done using that variable.
So to write a programme with efficient use of storage, you have to free the storage space after you are using it.
Many programming languages use a routine called "garbage collector" to free unused storage space.
So, if you don't want to be a garbage collector, you have to assign storage space manually.
The term "check mate" literally means "the king is dead".
We know the word for king from other known forms like "sheikh" or "Shah". I don't think the word for "dead" was loaned to English from Persian or Arab in any phrases or sayings except "check mate".
Yeah, but it's about killing the king. It's also about protecting your own king, so not a game of republicanism.
Edit: because of the other comment, I thought this was c/ADHD. So the text reads a bit weird. Sorry.
Original:
Firstly, sorry, I'm commenting as a person who doesn't have ADHD (that I know of). But I always feel a certain way when people in general say, that there's nothing to do.
Now, I don't know in which capacity ADHD affects you in creating or finding things to do.
But I feel like, there could always be something to do.
Here are a few examples:
make a wreath out of flowers
practice your handstand
guess cloud shapes
take a plunge in the lake
let flower petals float on the lake
built one of those stone towers that hikers always do
Or honestly, hiking back sounds like a good idea. Half an hour is an acceptable amount of time to stay at the peak/ any resting spot.
