The new interface takes regular searching out of Cortana's hands. Does that mean it will stop being able to find anything?
Not that Windows search can find anything when I really need it to.

[^]Quote: Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai will reveal plans to his fellow commissioners on Tuesday to fully dismantle the agency's Obama-era net neutrality regulations, people familiar with the plans said, in a major victory for the telecom industry in the long-running policy debate.
The commission will vote on the proposal in December, some seven months after it laid the groundwork for scuttling the rules that require internet service providers like Comcast or AT&T to treat web traffic equally.
US Telco's and ISP's continue to funnel millions to their legislative-lap-dogs, as well as offer daily sacrifices of geeks to the gods "Block," and "Throttle."

I've been saying for years what we need to do is to convince Comcrap to be more eviler; let the start violating the crap out of net nuetrality by redirecting foxnews.com to msnbc.com or routing all traffic to it through a 300 baud acoustic coupler in Zambia and the idea that its just an evil democrat plot will evaporate and we'll have bipartisan support to fix it.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

One of the problems with the power grab by the FCC was that the laws originally gave the FTC jurisdiction (and were never really changed.)

The "net neutrality" faction is significantly more evil than its opponents. Its backers want a government agency to block, throttle, monitor, censor, and discriminate internet content in their favor, creating corrupt content monopolies.
Their "net neutrality" stance is an outright lie, and their recent political failure is a free win for ordinary Americans.

Most source code files hosted on GitHub are actually clones of previously created files, according to a recent study conducted by a joint team of researchers from the University of California, Irvine, the Czech Technical University, Microsoft Research, and Northeastern University.

Is this one I'm looking at valid or just a bad or evil copy of the original?

No, I mean simply being to share files amongst many projects without duplication.

But it's better if you can include without having to copy at all.

The hunk of rock of that whipped through the solar system in October looks like no other asteroid we’ve seen before, they say, long and thin like a javelin and colored red from millions of years of accumulated radiation exposure. "So the world soon forgot about Rama. But the astronomers did not."
They missed such an opportunity naming it 'Oumuamua

I was quite enthralled with Rendezvous With Rama when I read it as a kid. Kept hoping the object would be something like that.

Yeah, Rama really pull you in. You just keep thinking, "what is this thing?", "what gonna happen?" "is it going to be bad?"
