I mean there can be an arbitrary penalty that will be hidden under several layers of "I'm hiding an implementation detail and that's a good thing". The user of the top layer will have no idea what's going on and therefore will use anything that's convenient, no matter the cost, it's all invisible. It's all preventable if you want to prevent it, but languages are set up to make people fall into the trap.

Dunno, how high are you? Rules state that you have to be at least 5' 7" to think about low level programming. Also, you need to weigh at least 12 stone.

With your migraines, I was getting them too.
I found taking Zyrtek and Singulair for allergies REALLY helped.
In fact, I forgot to take my Singulair last night, until the headache started.
I have a slight headache this morning still, from that mistake.

Indeed, that is why I try taking 4-5 mugs of tea in my daily up-time of 10 hours.
I will consider those also. Thank you very much!

Do you believe in a better world, where chickens can cross the road without having thier motives questioned?

Kinda cool seeing a local thing with such an outreach. Being from Louisiana, I pretend to take all the credit for Popeye's.

Never ate it in Boston, but am tempted to munch some seeing there are so many Popeye's stores in Toronto.

Not until I know who came first, the chicken or the egg.
I can't trust chickens that are so secretive about their order of appearance.

Depressingly, it's the egg.
We know that Dinosaurs laid eggs - you can buy them on ebay[^] - and chickens (as we know them, they evolved from jungle fowl after domestication) have only been around for between 12,000 and 6,000 years.
So the egg came first. And then rolled over and had a cigarette, probably.

Or is that what the chicken wants us to believe?

Actually, the questions easily answer based upon whether your a religious zealot and scientific dogmatist (or is it religious dogmatist and scientific zealot?).
Religious: Chicken came first as it was created.
Scientific: Egg came first. It wasn't laid by a chicken but by something very much like one.
Not a big deal question . . . so long as you take sides.

I think today have not any special things. I still don't make something with C++ yet. I am learning C++. I hope tomorrow will change.

Every day has special things. The trick is to spot them, to recognise them, and to appreciate them for what they are.
This gets easier as you get older, as the first special thing you tend to notice then is "I'm not dead yet!"

I've been trying to teach some chickens to swim. Swim in very hot water. Hot water with onions, carrots, beans and pasta.
Okay, I made chicken soup.
