I used to have a QA job. Can confirm, this is the soup in my head. That's why I was good at testing. Also, that's not your sister. That's your trans brother, who we also love. See?

Also misses the edge case where sister was born on a leap day

Or maybe in a country that recently switched from the Julian calendar, adding the possibility of >12 months between birthdays as described by calendar.

I wish I had a QA like this.

Real talk: I wish more orgs place a high value on QA. A good QA team is worth it's weight in gold and helps prevent a lot of stupid mistakes.

If you were 4 and now you are 44 then you might be an integer variable. If sister is also a variable, we don't know when she was allocated. She might also be an integer constant in which case she's arguably immortal.

well she is half my age and that is a well known time invariant so she is 22

This all assumes all years are measured by the same orbit with no mixing and matching planets or space habitats.

The standard earth year had not been adopted system wide

Pentester:

42, -7, Yellow, false, null, {{7*'7'}}

I design software, another guy builds it, then I test it. I seem to have a really good intuition for ferreting out the edgiest of edge cases and generating bugs. Pretty sure he hates my guts.

Project Managers and software designers are hated for their "designing". The testing is always very welcome.

clearly the answer is 22

I'm working on a gameboy emulator and the amount of edge cases you have to consider feels just like this lol.
