Gregory's Server@stefano The solution to all the problems we have known was one: 42. And we all know how that turned out” is a line from Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
. In the book, the supercomputer Deep Thought calculates that 42 is the answer to the “Great Question” of “Life, the Universe, and Everything
”. The supercomputer calculates the answer over 7.5 million years, but no one remembers what the question is. The book uses this paradoxical scenario for humorous effect.

@matuzalem Exactly, and that's the point. Sometimes, we search for solutions to all problems without realizing that we're just transferring them elsewhere. In the end, we don't even remember what the original problem was anymore. 🙂
