You might be into that. The rest of us like to analyse things honestly, especially given America is going down the route of making the same moves as history. If you don't see that, then it'd probably be better for you to go read something than to offer pithy comments on here.
Even after high school, when I moved to the city we had parties quite often. They weren't quite as large, drunk, or disorganized, but people actually got together all the time. Some places were like designated party spots, where no one had kids or demanding jobs so it was a reliable place to head and have a good time.
My kids don't know anyone or anything like that. It's so strange. They still have sleep overs where they play video games and use their phones. That's fine in a way. At their age I was in the woods getting drunk and starting bonfires. It was fun as hell, but maybe something closer to the middle would be ideal.
I have to agree, particularly if you look at functions as pipelines: data/events go in, other data/events go out.
If I had to hazard some kind of heuristic with 99% applicability, it'd be to always strive to have code with as few indentations (branches) as possible. If your code is getting too indented, those deep Vs are either a sign that your implementation has a strong mismatch with the underlying problem or you need to break things up into smaller functions.
Whenever I read about that or the disasters that ensued in the following centuries I always spend a day depressed.
Grim.
