Not trying to be pedantic, but: > We don't simulate a bird's bones and muscles Isn't really true, is it? We simulate the bones with an airframe, and we simulate the muscles with a prop/jet. The wings are similarly sim

Was excited to learn something here and did not. Seems like a very normal technical review process. My team uses discovery trees for the same goal.

My story: Spent weeks / months setting up a fairly sophisticated home automation set up running on a Mac Mini. Worked great for 3-4 years, occasionally I would have to re-pair all of the Z-Wave devices after a power outage, but nothing
