"It doesn't work because users are unwilling to go through and tag all their files." This doesn't make sense. They "File -> Save" to a location, right? That's a tag. All metadata is tags. People give filetype suffixes…
You asked: "Is this common enough a use case?" Then you answered your own question: "Plenty of applications do just this today". So yes, it is a common enough case that it could/should be built into the OS.
Tags are a strict superset of folder functionality. There's nothing you can do with folders that you can't do with tags. You want nesting? Tags can nest. You want visual clues? Tags can have visual clues. Folders can be…
I have a FingerWorks iGesturePad on my desk right now, a 17-year-old device which is still to this day the most advanced multi-touch consumer product. My experience with this product teaches me that multi-finger input…

Why because of shutdowns? That's fair but most of us up here at this salary level can weather a month or two without pay so long as it finally arrives. I'd be more worried about working for a fascist, even indirectly.
Nkrisk admits that their personal ethics allow unauthorized signing into hundreds of computer accounts for the purpose of committing fraud. That's very weak ethics.

No, not barbaric, that's the liability attached to all normal activities. "Knew or should have known" is the standard. Boeing management knew or should have known that selling an essential safety system relying on a…
I've always liked veggie burgers. The best ones are as good as very good hamburgers (in a different way). Some others are not so good.
The comment you replied to cites stats showing increased safety with the cameras. What kind of personal values lead you to reply saying they are less safe? You should reexamine your motivations, you are promoting human…

Nah people complained about software bloat before the internet too. They e been doing that since the invention of compilers.
We settled this debate in Slashdot in 1998. Your definition is too narrow.
Oh my God but that would be bad because privacy or something! Only some other implementation is okay!
Yes, 51% of evidence. Also known as "random guess plus one percent."

"BUT BUT TESTIMONY ISN'T EVIDENCE!" Republicans love to say this these days.
I had an incident on the way out of high school. Mom hired a lawyer and wanted to fight but I didn't g.a.f. I went off to college and didn't look back. Saved the lawyer fee, never cared.
Your goal at college was to "challenge your masters"? Why oh why wouldn't they want that kind of person around? Challenge masters on your own time, or when they invite it. Otherwise they aren't there for your…
