Maybe the "cubes" system will be used in the "hacking" mode? They did not show that in the demo because the character lacked the skills

Ask HN: Need advice to avoid a precious website to shutdown
A megpie's nest provided me for almost a decade an invaluable source of information and depth on the music composed by Howard Shore for the Lord of The Rings Trilogy. It's incredible how it became a "wikipedia" basically, mainteined by one person only. I read the sad notice about it's shutdown and it seems the author cannot afford costs of hosting anymore... Looking at the assets it's quite...

I think it is pure coincidence.
It is because of current design trends, this is ok for current websites to have this layout and design principles.

Couldn't those companies invest their money in a total new and fresh service/brand? We can agree that they're in fact declining, isn't it like "pulling up a car off a cliff"?

Fascinating theory regarding the ice, however, regarding the formation:
"According to the idea, the solar system had its origin in a gigantic star into which a smaller, dead, waterlogged star fell. This impact caused a huge explosion which flung fragments of the smaller star out into interstellar space where the water condensed and froze into giant blocks of ice. A ring of such blocks formed, which we now call the Milky Way, as well as a number of solar systems among which was our own, but with many more planets than currently exist."
maybe too far fetched? If it was like that we would have already spotted similar galactic formations outside of the Milky Way

[1] So basically we can say that objects such as Oort Cloud are directly connected with the formation of a system and as such they're tied with the star formation itself?

Interesting article.
Now that I think of it, how comes that in all the (known) universe we have ice or ice blocks (such as comets)? Where from does it originates?

Thanks for the answer,
I think that the key is that "not everything is equally important to me".
Regarding categories, I use a similar categorization, except for those you call "a" (I call them "session_1" ,2, 3, etc..), I still have the first folders from 2011, and some bookmarks are already dead! :D

Thank you for linking the extension, I'll try it out!
At first glance I think that it can be more useful (for me) in the overall daily/personal tasks instead of the work ones.

Nice out-of-the-box answer,
The first thing I was thinking about while reading it: http://www.modelships.de/Diana_III/dIMG_6982.jpg
