If you have n nodes, each one needs to connect to n-1 other nodes. But the connection from A to B is the same as the one from B to A. Therefore, there are n(n-1)/2 total connections.

My Mac screen isn't transparent. Why should its UI be?

If there is "some sort of AR glasses and something smaller form factor than the Vision Pro that will require transparency so you can see through to the real world", limit the transparent interface only to that device.

You just made TWO typos: "display-name" vs "display_name" and "_name" vs "name", automatically counter-argumenting your point.

It is also for documentation. With the declared constants, we know all possible values. With plain strings, how am I supposed to know which values to use?

The benefits far outweigh the marginal cost.

I would be happy if they worked locally. It is not often that I need to set the temperature remotely, when I am not in the house. But often I am laying in bed at night and don't want to get up and go downstairs to adjust the temperature. Why can't they work on the local network? That would take no resources from Google

The only thing better than telling a lie and people believing it, is telling the truth and no one believing it. Shows that her achievements are truly remarkable

I'm fortunate enough that my daughter has an admirable interest (and talent) for Math since very early age. She even won a medal at a renowned nationwide Math competition when she was in Grade 5... competing in the Grade 10 category.

The concept would be more interesting and realistic if they removed only Garfield's thought bubbles (after all, Jon can't hear Garfield's thoughts anyway) but still left Garfield in the comic.

Reminds me of this meme: https://i.redd.it/silx0aw4a1v51.jpg

Our phones replaced numerous different devices. All the time we used to spend watching TV, listening to music, reading books, getting the news, playing games, talking to friends is now done on our phones.
