> Windows touches more people’s lives than almost any technology on Earth. Every day, we hear from the community about how you experience Windows. And over the past several months, the team and I have spent a great deal of time analyzing your feedback. What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better.

They are not even acknowledging that feedback is negative. They make it sound like a love fest where users love windows so much that they want to make it even better.

There’s a typo in the article: “deos” -> “does”. How did I do?

I’m familiar with spaghetti code and with lasagna code (too many layers) but I’m curious: what’s ravioli code?

Thanks for your reply!

> it’s the bugs that make it to production that we’re trying to catch with assertions.

Nicely put, I think I’ll steal this!

> we have around 6,000+ assertions in TigerBeetle.

Are they enabled in production? Are there some expensive ones that aren’t?

Sounds even more confrontational.

Interesting how people keep calling it “the Chinese export ban”. Isn’t an American export ban?
