I can never keep those two apart, thanks for correcting me.
d
Me neither, had to look it up 😛

And people didn't​ agree when I said the names of those methods don't really say a lot...

I try to convince myself that
apply
is "closer" to the object then

The only thing I can come up with:
apply
applies something to the object, i.e. something that somehow operates on the object.
also
"does something" using the object. But it's very shaky and only makes sense if you squint...
