My ex boss used to say you'd complain if hit with a golden hammer.

Of course. I'd complain that the hammer isn't mine.
(A hammer the size of most nail hammers massing 2 kg of iron would mass ~5 kg if made of gold. 5 kg of gold is worth ~US $380,000.)
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

I know this is being pedantic, but really, being hit with a hammer doesn't do anyone any good, no matter its color or what it's made of. Do you get to keep the hammer after being hit with it?

Person 1: Why do you always answer a question with another question?

Reader's Digest was funny once.
Then it printed a second joke ...
Mind you, I only ever saw it in dentist's waiting rooms, and humour wasn't top of mind at the time.

I didn't think that orthopedic shoes would help, but I stand corrected.
I saw a burglar kicking in his front door. I asked what are you doing?
Working from home.
For our anniversary, I told my wife: I will get you diamonds.
Nothing would please me more, she said. Well, Ok then.

I want to get data from a website. The website provides an API in the form of:
https: If I type the query into my browser address bar I get a JSON text back in the browser window.
What is this type of query called? If I can get the terminology correct then I can start to search how to automate the query in my C++ app.
Thanks.

It is called a programming question and it is better placed in Quick Answers[^]

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.

I got it all sorted thanks to the helpful replies. And it was a "what is this?" question, not a programming question as I at no point asked for code or even a "how do I do this?".
But thanks for setting me straight

That is the problem, I can never tell from text if one is teasing or not. The smiley should have been enough of a clue but sometimes I can be pretty dense.
