Temporary problem

A problem that lasts no longer than a lifespan.

One day the problem child won't be here anymore, and that will be the end of what was always a temporary problem, since there's no such thing as a permanent person anyway. No matter the person, their lifespan is temporary.

The David Problem

A situation that arises during software development in which one developers build works perfectly (we call this the David build) whilst all other builds are completely fucked.

Dev 1: "Oh man, why isn't this building!!"
Dev 2: "What do you mean? It's building fine for me and we are running the same version.. ?"
Dev 1: "Why must you constantly create the David Problem..."

Nope, maybe it was the title length? Like if I make a super long title it somehow makes the site think that there is a problem with the server and it stops the post from going through... Ok. I'll do that now. Super-long title no justsu!!!

Maybe Urban Dictionary is like a woman, except, in reverse...

My problem with determinism

Is how it's supposed existence is demonstrated, right? They usually use this binary prompt-response scenario. Like "Think of a city. Now did you pick the the specific city or was it random?" And I think that's the wrong way to conceptualize it.

Hym "So, my problem with determinism (at least in this example of determinism) is that although I don't choose the specific city, I still activate the 'mode' that searches for city and I can choose not to do it and prevent a city from coming to mind OR I can misfire. It's like a hat with with slips of paper in it and, on the slips of paper, are the names of cities. Now, you can prompt me to think of 'city.' I can choose to reach into the hat. And only then do I get a random city. But what I DON'T get is 'Nissan' or 'helicopter' or 'banana' or 'dog.' I activate the mode that searches for city and I reach into the hat. See, as I have it conceptualized, thought exists in this nebulous, un-articulated format. So, to get language I need to activate some kind of process. And prompt response ISN'T THE SAME as what I'm doing when I'm monologing. I'm running that nebulous, un-articulated thought-matter through a lexicon that corresponds with my native language. But I am that which activates modes. I can can turn it on or off like a switch. It can also misfire while I'm not paying attention. So, yeah... I think it's a failure to properly conceptualize and a failure to compartmentalize."

Luxury Problem

Having so much of something nice, that it becomes a problem.
In other words: Luxury that leads to problems.

If someone speaks of such a problem, you are likely to give big sarcastic "boo-hoo" response.

"I have so much beer, I don't have enough place to store it."
- Luxury problem

I found so much gold, I can't carry it home anymore.

I'm so goodlooking, people always think I'm shallow.

My skin is wrinkly, cause I sat in a jacuzzi all day.

My back hurts, cause my mother hugs me so much.
