Insurers differ from other companies. The single-digit profit margin they report is actually a fat double digit net earnings.

How do you all refer to parent or grandparent (or related) class instances and their properties?

I have a bunch of classes that create instances of other classes as properties. Suppose ClassA has properties that are instances of ClassB, ClassC, and ClassD, and the ClassD class has properties ClassD1 through ClassD9, and each of those is a different class instance with various methods.

Currently, when I start with myClassAObject and I call one of its ClassD9 methods and that method needs a property from its uncle ClassB, I feel awkward and/or dumb for doing this by passing myClassAObject to that method:

const returnval = myClassAObject.itsClassDObject.theClassD9method(myClassAObject);

…and then that method gets the property from myClassAObject.itsClassBObject.theProperty

I know this functions, but it shouts “inelegant” every time I do it. Do y’all know a more elegant way? TIA

Hi. I removed a post because its photo broke a sub rule but I invited the poster to repost without the photo. However, the poster doesn't have the original text and I'm trying to get it back for him. How do I view the removed post? It is not in Queues>Removed and I can't see it anywhere I've looked (desktop browser). In "Mod Log", I see two "Remove post" line items, but I don't see a way to view what was removed. The comments from the post I removed: https://www.reddit.com/r/Veep/comments/1uqqril/comment/owce4rh/

Edit: If it matters, the way I "removed" the post was by tapping X on mobile, to the right of the upvote/downvote/message-count/share widgets.

My new build is not POSTing and the mobo's DRAM light is on in all the configurations I've tried. Am hoping I'm overlooking something and I don't have to return or RMA the RAM.

Details: Gigabyte Z890 Aorus Master, Patriot Viper Venom 2x16GB DDR5-6400 RAM, Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus CPU. My first act was to update the BIOS to F20c using the Q-Flash feature before installing the CPU or RAM. This headless update seemed to work, going by the blinking light. After installing the hardware, when I power on, the DRAM light on the motherboard lights up, and a series of hex codes show up on the LED readout on the mobo itself - 76, 3A, 54, they change frequently and I don't see a diagnosis from them. After a few seconds the DRAM light turns off briefly, the CPU light blinks once, and then the DRAM light turns on again, which in my mind means it's restarting on some level and continuing to fail when checking the DRAM.

Things I have tried: Installing the 2 sticks of RAM in the B1 and A1 DIMM slots; installing them in the B2 and A2 slots (in both orders); installing a single stick in B2 (tried with both sticks), installing a single stick in A2 (tried with both sticks). Same symptoms.

Stuff I don't think matters: I've tried an old AMD R9 video card with DVI-out, and have tried DisplayLink out via integrated graphics; no video signal on either one (and I had not figured I'd get a video signal and a POST anyway because the DRAM light is on).
