   So what do they stand to gain by eliminating standardized testing, if they also don't benefit from legacy advantage?

   To use your car analogy- just because a new car will be worth more than a used one (and this is much more true of cars than houses), that doesn't mean there's no such thing as a luxery car. Sure, newness is a type of luxery (I&#x2

    Somehow I doubt that's a considerable driver of affordable housing prices, but it's possible. Where did you get that from?

    More luxery houses would lower prices for luxery housing, but not necessarily for affordable housing. I don't know how much those are competing markets

    I'd still call this a success for rust in the wild, if a huge entrenched company like Google would include it so much for a big OS play, even if it shares that room with more established languages.

    What else do you think people ought to do with them? They're pretty small, so e.g. reading a book is a bit difficult, and using them as general purpose computers is difficult because they lack a keyboard (and thus an easy way to progra

    Maybe I'm wrong, I'm a very causal user, but I think the only way to do it is to create a shape that covers the part you want to keep, and then do object -> set -> clip or something like that; it's not exceedingly awful

    I've had this conversation with a relative. To them, the difference is that if I know what's on their phone I might judge them for it or tell other people, Google isn't likely to do either.
