You shown long LINQ query and start talking about "foreach". But even being that long, FORMATTING RULES. 
someStuff.Where(c => c != What)
.Select(d => d + The)
.Foreach(e => Hell(e));
Oh you mean the source, sure. foreach it is then, problem solved.
Nope. You do not solve problem if you prepare list of objects thru foreach - you have to put 'em in a List<> (because hell knows how it will be used later). In case of LINQ you prepare just REQUEST (which takes zero memory), which later will enumerate any amount of objects. And BTW same request can be enumerated many times.

So then it isn't the source, and it probably doesn't need to exist. Just act on it right then and there in the loop.

Agreed, this is cancer. IEnumerable and Linq will cause far more instructions to be processed by the processor than a simple "for" loop with an "if". Will the average user notice this? No, not on todays computers. But as more people do these trick things, it does build up.
I remember when trick things were done to save processor clock ticks, and it was just as bad for reading code. The smart ones would document the clever code with comments with a reasoning why it had to be done.
if you've seen that in production code before, people are trying to be clever for clever sake, I just don't see the benefit.

In the same way people write crappy Transact SQL, crappy C#, and crappy documentation, some write "elegant" SQL, C#, LINQ, etc.
I found an "elegant" NEED for IEnumerable the other day; it simplified the code using it.

Yeah - I hate that sort of sh*t as well. Write-only programs. I think people think they're clever, or something: "Those of you who think you're intelligent are annoying to those of us who are"(tm)...

I agree with Harry here, but I think a lot of developers, including maybe even Harry, are missing the point.
Programming code is not there to suit the computer, or the compiler, or the run-time engine.
If it was, we would do everything in machine code, or p-code, or whatever.
Code is there to be read by PEOPLE.
Anything that obscures that intent is, basically, just pretentious BS.
Why should I have to stop and ponder your code for even 3 seconds? Every time I see that line?

I now have my son back. Last Christmas we finally gave in and bought our son an iPad. Since then we have become iPad widows. Nothing else interests him...until now that is. Pokemon go has got him off the iPad and onto the...iPhone. I know it doesn't sound like much...but it is. Leaving the house is so easy now, no arguments. Sometimes the signal goes and he is forced to talk about the interesting surroundings. And what's more, someone had the bright idea to make pubs pokestops a place where you get random gifts. Thanks Nintendo -bringing families back together again since 2016.

Just another experiment by the elite pushing towards a paradigm where all reality is augmented through technology, whether it is this or "google glass" or self driving cars, and government has the capacity to alter any information past present or future.

You define game developers as "the elite"?
I'm sure that there are one or two members here who might disagree with that.

You mean there are actually people who don't want to be considered "elite"?
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Their next game will be Children Go. You can find augmented children in and around your house who, contrary to your own, like to spend time with you

In that case, should they not call it Children Stay?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I can't wait for Pacman Go.

Whenever I run Minecraft, my ASUS ROG Laptop suddenly decides that the power cable isn't plugged in, even though it is. Closing MC causes it to 'reconnect'.
For a time. There are other random disconnects, and a tap to the bottom under the cable plug usually fixes it, except for when MC is running.
I'm wondering if this is a hardware issue or a software/firmware issue.
I'll probably go to Best Buy and talk to someone there about it.
Still, it's weird that MC would cause it to fail to reconnect.
OS is WinX. I don't think that's the issue.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Does it also happen with other games? The graphics processor can draw a lot of power, just like the CPU. It could be that both together draw too much power and the power supply is too weak. Then the voltage would drop and it would react as if the cable had been disconnected. Try running some other more demanding game to find out.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

Very likely!
It may also be that the PSU is on it's way to Silicon Heaven and starts to shut down when the current gets too much - my desktop PSU started to do that recently and had to be replaced.

Great! That's one of the first questions I would expect from a real AI. So, you made me. Then who made you? My answer would probably be evolution in both cases, but that would probably be a problem for really religious people.

Oh no. One of them once condemned me to hell for playing around with something that does not exist (evolutionary algorithms) and for trying to play god.
