Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

The UI design of Google isn't very hard to emulate, even by a junior frontend developer. It's the backend that's the really compel stuff.

I think you’re vastly underestimating the amount of research and work that goes into making Google products so easy to use.

UI isn’t just a front end development mashing their keyboard with HTML, CSS and JS. It’s hours and hours of observation, research, prototyping, pattern identification, prioritization of information, experimentation and then you create a simple white screen with one input box that does a million things.
