Ironic, because these are just Java IDEs.

You're trying to dominate a social situation, because you think you are right (and by extensions, that there are others who will support you and strengthen your position) and because there's a lack of physical threat.

In the real world, you would not want to cause a ruckus, because there could be consequences, and your are not the dominant member of the group. For example; someone could punch you.

If you could, you would want to dominate any situation that you can. We are wired that way.

Nothing on your site provides a solution for my problem.

It seems like Windows is not really one of these use cases.

> Do you have profiler data showing that the microseconds needed to pass a message between a process is a significant limiting factor

What? I think you didn't get my point. Let me try again.

You can look at a single operation and say "oh, that's nothing, it's so cheap, it only takes a millisecond". Even though there's a way to do the same thing that takes much less time.

So this kind of measurement gives you a rational to do things the "wrong" way or shall we saw the "slow" way because you deem it insignificant.

Now imagine that everything the computer is built that way.

Layers upon layers of abstractions.

Each layer made thousands of decisions with the same mindset.

The mindset of sacrificing performance because "well it's easier for me this way".

And it's exactly because of this mindset.

Now you have a super computer that's doing busy work all the time. You think every program on your machine would start instantly because the hardware is so advanced, but nothing acts this way. Everything is still slow.

This is not really fear mongering, this is basically the state of software today. _Most_ software runs very slow, without actually doing that much.

It would probably have been better if they had assigned a team of highly skilled engineers to design a distributed source control from scratch specifically to solve the problems faced by the windows team.

After all, `git` itself was developed for Linux because Linus was not satisfied with any of the existing solutions.

Am I on some kind of a black/gray list? Either that, or you specifically remember my name, which sounds odd.

How to support intellisense for a language one time and have it work on many editors?

A PC full of programs built with these assumptions will probably grind to a halt all the time despite having very high spec hardware.

For how long do they claim benefits?

This could actually be a bad sign.

If you think about it actually more reason to hate on free loaders. They cause tragedies like this.

This article is basically just hating on the rich people.

I think it's rather easy to understand what this author is puzzled by: people want to keep their money. If you've earned your money and you want to keep it, I can empathize with you. If you think you deserve to take other people's money, I can't empathize with you.

Selecting only based on chattiness is not good, but filtering out people who cannot even chat is probably a good thing from a company's point of view.

If declaring structs is seen as costly overhead that complicates coding, tests are when more cumbersome.
