question:
... Fiction writers (eye roll) To be burned at the stake If we can't come up with a verb, perhaps a corresponding noun or adjective would suffice. 15th century historical fiction, so modern terms such as marshmallowed wouldn't really help. Here is my sample: You, the accused, have been found guilty of practicing Judaism as a Christian. This heresy against our Lord Savior carries the penalty of ____(noun). Or [C]onvicted of heresy, you are to be ____(verb).
answer:
There is immolate: to kill or destroy (someone or something) by fire You also have the noun immolation and the adjective immolated. Now the thing is it doesn't have to be at a stake. It could be, say, in a cage. The word has been around since the 15th century.


question:
Often when making websites, I will create an HTML form object that I will use in two places: once on a page that allows a user to add a new object, and once on a page that allows a user to edit existing objects. What is a word that describes such a form? It isn't so much a management form, since managing implies that the object is already created. It isn't a creation form, since that implies we are only making new ones. More generally, it's common to have a workflow capable of adding new data and editing existing data. Is there a common English word or phrase to describe such workflows clearly?.
answer:
In webdev, this is called an upsert form-- a portmanteau of insert and update.


question:
The Law of Demeter ('talk only to your friends') is a good place to start, but think about it this way: you can play with your toys, with toys that you make, and with toys that someone gives you. You don't ever, ever play with your toy's toys. Source: The Thoughtworks Anthology What could the last sentence mean? Could a toy have a toy? Assuming a toy means 'A toy is an item that is used in play', a toy can never have a toy, so one cannot play with a toy's toys (it's physically not possible). The context is object oriented programming.
answer:

Toys absolutely can have toys. For example, this 'Barbie Kelly Playroom' comes with stuffed animals, dolls, a play kitchen, and UNO for Kelly (Barbie's sister and a toy): In this case, it would be possible to play with Kelly's toys directly (with the exception of UNO, which is almost certainly just a box). However, what you're supposed to do is have Kelly play with her toys.
