He stated: So much of [Rhaenyra's] claim is wrapped up in the realm's assurance that, yes, Rhaenyra will be que...

Q: A post-apocalyptic novel with a girl who is hairy all over

AlfredI read this post-apocalyptic novel about 20 years ago. I am positive that I read it in French, in a paperback. But it might well have been a translation, quite possibly from English. At the beginning, the main character lives in a dystopia, ruled by a dictator who controls people by sending them ...

geeWishhI've come to my wits end. I read a sci-fi short story back in the 90's as a part of anthology. Unfortunately I can't remember the author, the title, or the collection. It was about a boy living on a fake tropical island / paradise planet and then a woman came to get him out from there since he wa...

Q: Any reason the site starts to talk in Russian to me?

Henning KockerbeckToday, I had the message in my inbox that I've earned a new privilege. The message was followed by "Узнайте больше об этом в Справке.", which LibreTranslate translates to "Find out more about this in the Help." To my best knowledge, I never stated to speak Russian anywhere, and I can't find a la...

Q: Manwha or manhua in which the male leads dropped the original (naive) female lead because they liked how capable the villainess was

Trustfulkiller1I don't remember the whole plot or even how the characters look based on how long I haven't read or seen it. The story was one of those villainess tales, but it had multiple male leads. Maybe around 3-4 at best? Something I do remember was that in each moment of the story, the male leads would dr...

Q: book series about kids in ancient greece

EzraWhen I was in primary school (before 2014) I was obsessed with this books series about kids living in ancient Greece and going through Greek life. There was a book about them living through Pompeii and one on slavery too but I can't remember what the series was called and I only have a vague idea...

OMFG. This is insane.
method1: get list of forms, call addAll on a list in the container.
method2 (get list of forms): create a list, pass to method3, return the list
method3: get form (method4), add to passed list if not null
method4: check flag, if true build form, if false, return null
And the ultimate caller is initializing the list in the container to empty.
So all they need to do is check flag, if true add build form to list. 3 lines. Not 4 methods!!
And of course the only caller of each of these is the method immediately above it; it's not like there's some kind of code re-use going on.
