The most practical example for a LCARS-like UI is the Flat UI bootstrap templates. Unfortunately, most attempts at making LCARS practical have failed because it was designed to look good on camera. Just try to use lcarscom.net[0] or lcars.o

Like Scala/Clojure on the JVM, F#/ClojureCLR on .Net, or Coffeescript/Typescript on Javascript, it adds higher-level programming language semantics to programs running in a browser, NodeJS, Rhino, or any other javascript VM. Features like n

This is why programming language history is so important. Every programming language has a large number of opinions/assumptions. Code structure is one of them. The Arduino language, based on C/C++, has assumed a simple code structure that h

It might matter later in Tesla's life, when they have a larger number of cars on the road (3 to 5 years), but right now Tesla is the only one who can ensure the quality of the customer experience. Ensuring a good customer experience, right

If the target is first-time contributors, then I would say a consistant process, for them, trumps the potential contribution to the project. My experience with "dinky" projects is they are inconsistant with accepting help (bug reports, code

That sounds like the path of artificial sweeteners. If history is any guide, there will also be a backlash where its artificial nature will be equated with poison for your body.

Not silly. There are supercavitating and ground effect vehicle designs that reach subsonic speeds(300+ km/s). Most are torpedos, like the VA-111 Shkval[0], or military craft, but the potential is there for a very fast boat-like thing. [0]

While this is cool, in a Maker/Hack-a-Day way, it also lacks everything that makes the Oculus Rift amazing (quality optics, a quality screen, quality head-tracking, and better inputs).
