Why has no one come up with the concept of mobile hotels on wheels yet? Here’s the idea.

Essentially, it’s a container with furniture inside that integrates with adjacent containers. Each container, or unit, can be moved and connected to another location. The façade is quick to erect and dismantle, to conceal the wheels and cabins. During the summer, the peak demand season, such structures could be erected in deserted areas close to the coast (up to “within walking distance”). Different units have different prices. Combined units are more expensive.

Further. The units are built according to a standard project to be compatible with each other. Interior design, furniture, materials, and appliances can vary from unit to unit. In the low season, units move to areas where demand is higher. Each unit can have its own owner. They can choose to have it managed by the company that moves them, or they might manage it through a single mobile hotel. The hotel thus rents units from companies that move them or directly from the owner. Both the owner and the companies that move the units try to find a hotel that will pay more. And the hotel tries to fill the units to remain profitable. Overall, the situation is similar to that with railway cars.

The service is provided by the hotel. The unit owner only rents out/serves as a “renovated room” and “the furniture inside it”. In one hotel, all rooms might be completely different – but when someone books a room, they choose a specific unit.

The update on my blog:

In SAP Hybris Commerce, the requests for the SOLR search engine are created by Query Builders. Simply put, these components convert the user queries to SOLR queries. Certainly, it is not possible to explain the search results if you don’t know what SOLR request was generated and why it contains particular conditions in the particular form.

Unfortunately, the official documentation is very sparse and lacks examples. I explain the differences between available query builders and Lucene Query Parsers. It might be a good complement to my article about search relevancy.

Someday I will play it. Very beautiful and not wildly complex. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Fy4kSo7Xx8

Bought these chess pieces today (already had the board).

Some people believe that in chats, they must always respond to messages, not just to questions. Apparently, they reason as follows: since the interlocutor has responded, he, like me, is waiting for a response.

Thank God, these people most often do not get offended if I decide simply not to respond, as the topic is exhausted, the person answered the question or I responded to their answer, and there is no time or reason for me to introduce a new topic.

But I’ve noticed many times. Speaking cynically, it’s important for them to have the last word in the conversation. Where does this come from? How do you cure it?

Perhaps it’s time to start teaching the basics of netiquette in schools. But that’s a broader topic.
