Just a quick question for current Phoenix users — how is the multiple monitor performance? By that I mean a situation where I'm going from just the MacBook screen to three monitors on one desk to four monitors on another desk. Will it automatically detect how many monitors are present, without having to resort to hardware-specific configurations? This is a killer feature for me on Hammerspoon, but I much rather script with JS than Lua, out of familiarity.

Then why make opting-out of telemetry consent so obtuse?

A full set boolean queries, while useful for specifying a query, are likely far too computationally expensive at scale. The reason you don't see most major search engines abandon them is because the resources are better spent investing into heuristic algorithms that benefit a majority of the userbase.

Us foreign English-speakers, on occasion, do watch good movies. It's okay.

Good data, but I wish they would have rendered these tables using HTML. Not fun typing these out myself to search.

I just installed brew on a brand-new El Capitan install with 0 problems.

The answer is a resounding 'no'. Typesetting is something that is nearly completely done by InDesign at large shops — the advantages of LaTeX just aren't appreciable when laying out photo-heavy books that use layouts custom to each book. 99% of the things InDesign can do are definitely replicable in LaTeX, but it'd be a ton of work and would require one hell of a knowledge of LaTeX libraries. Contrast this with the fact that a competent high schooler with some knowledge of design can pump out great looking layouts with InDesign. LaTeX is great for personal documents and publications where layout has been wholly standardized, but those situations are quite rare for publishing firms.
