The evolution of HTML and CSS clearly shows that HTML isn't suited to describe a interface without massive hints to a rendering engine to manipulate it
I have no experience with blender but have been developing for maya for 7+ years or so. Python in Maya is very much a afterthought and extremely slow (even for Python standards). There is noting pythonic about the api which by all means is just a port of the mel interface.
The documentation is great, agreed, but I am not sure you can attribute that to the python part of Maya. The documentation structure goes back to pre python days.
If any of the major studios spent a fraction of their development budget on Blender rather than Maya (and contributed back to the community) I think we could see great strides in polishing Blenders usability for scripting.
From a subjective view I do not believe we want any business model that survives on utilising your data beyond the core of the product to exist e.g. I would think we want anyone to sell your data to add companies.
I do not believe there is a need for so much free stuff in general. But it should never be a situation where you have to pay for your data to be safe.
the UK's implementation and seemingly general view on lighting seems to be very different than to the rest of Europe. For one, it is quite minimal, the major highways and public parks are barely lit. And the lighting used is so orange and so little lumen that it leaves the eye struggling to either adjust for the reflection of the moon or the street light, straight up awful. I don't mind a balance between preserving traditional feel around pubs etc but we definitely need to have public paths adequately lit.
found the site and app to be very snappy with a connection from England. Might give more understanding to your experience if you added some context, location, internet speed ect.
