Well, if you like the general sound of playing the home row in this layout, then simply remapping this thing for Dvorak might get you somewhat far toward that goal since the home row actually contains the vowels and common consonants.

I don't know what qualifies as "really good examples" but there are lots of random things that use metaprogramming in some capacity and are popular. Lots of IDLs, serialization formats, ORMS etc. I am thinking stuff like Pro

This comment really resonates with me. It is what I think of when I hear that quote, "Technology has the shelf life of a banana". It demotivates from starting new side projects when the old ones take such efforts just to set up a

Perhaps this particular case has motivations similar to the ballon project, i.e. more internet access brings more ad impressions.

Very interesting point! There is an argument that lines are a unit of human comprehension and complicated expressions should be broken onto different lines already, as a matter of readability. It makes some sense to let the granularity at

The "even frames" method of comparison you describe is flawed. Motion blur is very important to our perception of motion, and is the reason that motion at 24fps can look great on exposed film (lots of blur) and terrible in video games (no
