Yes. But my memory is not extensible.
Last time I tried I told my surgeon:

Doctor, doctor!

What's up again jacob?

I need a memory extension, my brain is full!

Why?
You have been studying again  the C++ specs?

Yes, I just wanted to know how the function call works
but it was several dozens of pages of stuff, with a
topological sort of the classes involved, with all those
template specializations that go nuts when I forget a >... etc.

Then I just noticed that as I read
page 12 I was forgetting what was in page one and also
the name of my wife...

Terrible! I need a bigger brain!!!

Well, jacob... I can't do anything for you but...
Why don't you learn a simpler language, like C?
It uses much less memory.

You see?

The doctor told me so.
