HTTP/2 supports request multiplexing so you don’t need multiple connections or queuing to fetch multiple resources. The bigger issue is that a lot of requests are dependent on previous requests so all the latency adds up. E.g. when you

This has been tried multiple times. Micropayments just don’t work well. People don’t want to create an account, break out their CC, and enter their info just for a 5c transaction. You also can’t even profitably charge a CC 5c, so you need t

Lead in the blood is really just a side effect of chronic exposure. What’s currently considered elevated is something like 3.5 micrograms / dL. It’s equivalent to just a few specks of lead dust in your blood. The bigger issue is that l

I don’t think lawyers want version control of contracts. They want what is outlined in the contract to be the final agreement. An agreement with a bunch of history attached seems like it would be worse.

Both 0 and 1 indexing aim to answer the question: "what is the index of the 1st element?" floor(1) = 1 and ceil(1) = 1 so I'm not sure how your names apply.
