I guess this is obvious but for the record: once one company using hot_tech_x gets significant funding, several more do. Then you have a bunch of ppl invested (literally) in hot_tech_x's success. hot_tech_x is then the answer to every

I enjoy it when ppl use "Beautiful" "Clean" and "Elegant" to describe code, software, etc or anything technical. It's quite the compliment to one's self to know what is beautiful not only to yourself

OT but "performant" is not a word. I know what your[0] saying: "but everyone uses it alot[1]". Irregardless[2] if I just mis-use[3] characters frequently enough, am I suddenly right? [0] incorrect word/grammar. [1]
