There's a UX for those things too. The users would be the consumers of the API.

Punycode has its benefits, when people try to phish with phony domains that look like legitimate ones.

I think the point was that UNIX got it wrong, and we've been dealing with the consequences ever since. It's of course too late to change it, so yeah.

To be fair, Haskell is the Common Lisp of lazy functional languages. You don't hear much about Maclisp or Zetalisp anymore either.

Still subject to the implementation. Chez Scheme is one of the best for performance vs., say, MIT Scheme.

If you're answering the question, I think it would be good to answer it directly.

This doesn't seem to work too well for sites that need JavaScript to render. Then again, I suppose those sites might not have RSS either.

I don't know of a single person who hasn't made very bad mistakes using C. Even the stuff coming from Bell Labs (Plan 9, UNIX) has had trivially avoidable bugs. By your analogy, everyone has lost at least one digit.

>I'm certain someone did such surveys. Sure, it's easy enough. But until you can actually point to the surveys, we can't say anything about the code on Github relating to the point being made.

You're ignoring the operative word, which is need . You can't say much about that point without actually doing some analysis. For instance, how much of that code is wiring? How much of that code is rewriting existing solutions fo
