Funny how the "final feature set for 2018" is nailed near enough Feb 2018.
Call me stupid, when I'll get whiteboard tested on these shiny new concepts, but I really don't (and you shouldn't also) give a rats ass about all of this.
"In his novels Dick was interested in seeing how people react when their reality starts to break down. A world in which the real commingles with the fake, so that no one can tell where the one ends and the other begins, is ripe for paranoia."
Reminds me of the recent Hawaii false missile alert.

This is far more respectful of user privacy than we usually see from Google. I, for one, am impressed.
A complaint about marketing ("get us to buy more"), on an article about always-on audio processing in a phone, implies a concern about privacy-invading user tracking. I was pointing out that (on the face of it, at least) this doesn't seem to do that.
I've been exposed to decorators (starting with Java) and have 'gotten' them and I will proudly admit that I despise decorators and don't think they are great at all.
