Yeah, this guy doesn't (as he admits) understand a skaters mindset or culture. If you ride Indy's you're buying into classic solid trucks, and if you been skating a long time you are likely to be nostalgic. On a more practica

Yeah this is a common problem that pops up all the time, typically a tree, or taxonomy etc aren't sufficient and you need an ontology. But they aren't so easy to grasp intuitionally so we try to dumb it down and then hit problems,

JVM was originally designed for set top boxes (STB) I believe, the problem there being a variety of architectures, thus a Virtual Machine solved the problem of write code to the virtual machine and not the physical machine and applications

I very much doubt the price of the product is coming from this company, everything else sure, trolley.co.uk should explicitly ask them if they data aggregator provides the price to the website. It doesn't matter if they also store that

The images are obviously going to be copyrighted, I suspect the product information is also likely sourced from third party, and thus you would be infringing database rights by scraping. I find it very unlikely that the price of the product
