Women actually HATE when a guy is funny or musically skilled, whereas the real panty-dropper is telling her you run a Twitter account called “King Libertarian”

I asked my girlfriend about this and she says that as an AI language model, she doesn’t have opinions of her own. She’s so cute. – at Austin, TX

I think you dont have experience with java. You could have told them to write a singleton method that returned a factory factory that instantiated in internal method that could be accessed by getters and setters where you could send arbitrary functions and those would get run for a specific number of times and return values, in sync or async. I'm sure he would have been able to do this easily in 7 months.
