Come on. Implementing something you invented should be easy. That's absurd. So you're saying there's no Apple bugs in Quicktime or Cocoa? You're saying there

Come on. Implementing something you invented should be easy.
That's absurd. So you're saying there's no Apple bugs in Quicktime or Cocoa? You're saying there's no bugs in Emacs that Stallman wrote? You're saying that there's no bugs in Mathematica written by Wolfram? You're saying that there's no bugs in Java produced by Sun? You're saying that Ken Thompson wrote no bugs in Unix. Stroustrop wrote no bugs in C++.
I've never seen a non-trivial program, standards-based or not, that is bug free, period. Not one.
Heck, there's a 30 year old bug in binary search that largely went unnoticed -- even Donald Knuth missed the bug!
Bugs happen in trivial programs. Any non-trivial program will have bugs.
This is completely insincere. Unless you're willing to say the same thing about ODF and virtually every other file format that exists, since I can find bugs implementing just about all of them from their core proponent.
- recoiledsnake 16y agoGet used to it. Regardless of the technical merits, it's cool to hate on MS and blindly support Apple/Google on Slashdot, Reddit and even more so on HN. I've seen people quit HN in disgust because of the arguments, comments and moderation of Apple fans on here.
