If the variable size was previously defined and the previous definition was the correct size, there is no need, nor if the correct length can be judged by the register name. 如果之前定義咗變數大細，而之前嘅定義係正確大細，就冇需要；如果可以根據暫存器名判斷正確長度，亦冇需要。

Cris’ comment coming through my high definition tv made me think if it was still true that “you had to be there.” Comparing what I saw in “real definition,” I can attest watching on modern television is in many ways better. The close up perspectives, sweeping panoramic shots, super slow motion replays all display the action as you could never see it from a stadium seat or standing on the sidelines. Cris 喺我部高清電視度發出嘅評論令我諗起「你一定要喺度」係咪仲係真嘅。比較我喺「真正定義」入面睇到嘅嘢，我可以證明睇現代電視喺好多方面都係好啲。特寫視角、全景鏡頭、超慢動作重播都顯示出動作，因為你喺球場座位或者企喺場邊永遠都唔會睇到。

However, whether they are gods depends on definition. In many religious traditions, a god isn’t just powerful but also a fundamental source of existence—either creating the universe (transcendent) or embodying it (immanent). Extraterrestrials, no matter how advanced, might still be contingent beings—products of the same cosmic processes as us—rather than the ultimate origin of reality. So, they could be deemed gods by some, but philosophically, they might not fit the full criteria. 但係，佢哋係咪神係取決於定義。喺好多宗教傳統入面，神唔單止係強大嘅，亦都係存在嘅基本來源 —— 要係創造宇宙（超越）或者體現宇宙（內在）。地外生物，無論幾先進，都可能仍然係偶然存在 —— 同我哋一樣嘅宇宙過程嘅產物 —— 而唔係現實嘅最終起源。所以，佢哋可能會畀一啲人視為神，但係喺哲學上，佢哋可能唔符合所有標準。

Systems in which the rules are based on usage, such as languages or customary law, are condemned to become absurd, cumbersome and contradictory, since every time a small error slips into one of their usages, it is integrated into the rules, by definition, for eternity. The more users are ignorant, the more systems degrade rapidly. English, poorly used by millions of people, natives or not, for centuries, is an example of the degradation of a system at terminal stage, no longer presenting any logic, neither in its syntax, nor its grammar, nor its vocabulary or its pronunciation. Similarly, with customary rights becoming too cumbersome and incomprehensible, the states which rely on them tend to switch to prescriptive law. 規則係基於用法嘅系統，例如語言或者風俗法，就被譴責會變得荒謬、繁瑣同矛盾，因為每次有一個小錯誤滑入其中一個用法，就會被整合到規則入面，根據定義，用戶越係無知，系統就越係快速退化，唔係幾百萬人用得唔好，係一個唔係幾世紀嘅人，唔係一個例子呈現任何邏輯，無論係佢嘅語法，定係佢嘅文法，定係佢嘅詞彙或者佢嘅發音，同樣地，隨住風俗權利變得太過繁瑣同難以理解，依賴佢哋嘅國家通常會轉向規定法律。
