This looks really interesting! My first thought is, how often does all the structure you added get in the way? With plain text (most terminals), it's easy to grab any chunk of text. With structured text, UI elements often get in the wa

Some do, not all do. I do much better in a room with ~6 people that are working on the same project. Much better than working at home. Much better than a private office (which I've had). Having people around me working on the same proj

Seems similar to me. Lots of rounded rect products existed before iPhone. Like say, cassette tapes, vhs tapes, 8track tapes, bars of soap, cans of spam, license plates, sardine cans, etc...

Documentaries often have agendas that are at odds with their subject. If you can't show drug users in their worst light should you also not be able to show politicians in their worst light?

In some countries, Japan for instance, it's illegal to film people without their permission. Exceptions are made for crowds and of course most people don't prosecute, especially if they don't notice, but it is illegal. Tangen

No, it won't, because that concern often leads to polices that have unintended consequences that in the end hurt the welfare of others.

I have no clue how to implement a search but maybe some words are more important than others. I searched for "mens dress shirts button long sleeve" and after about 6 results it was all women's clothing.
