Some unexpected issues are not solved for past 20 years. I do not attack annotations or XML per se. The general approach "neither thing is precisely OK, so let's use both" seems questionable to me. I believe, XML is complex enough, so why d

Patch-based stuff is simply based on obsolete 30 yrs old assumptions. Why should you need a combinatorial algorithm to detect changes if you can track every user's action? etc etc OT is a dead end. The problems they struggle with could be t

The present OT is very much an epicycle theory. They always have that one last issue to fix. In fact, several, if not the most of, classic OT papers were later found to be inconsistent, e.g. some combination of concurrent edits makes copies

It is a very good example of putting spin on history. They don't lie, they just put the "right" emphasis. Depending on how much you know, you understand the text differently. But failing to mention KHTML by name is an act, indeed. Reminds m

Exactly. Free market does not contradict planning. Both in-house and national-level planning works quite nicely in market economies. Leontief got a Nobel for theory and practice of the process.

Well, I understand that completely. People trust brands. That is just a cognitive shortcut. That's why we have marketing.

Sorry, but I can't lie to you. I heard all that Google campus stories a zillion times, except probably for j-k buttons, which are hinted at the bottom of the GMail page, right? Downvote at will.

You speak like a true believer. The mails have shown, precisely, that IPCC process is manipulated. That is the problem. Does warming exists? Most likely. Is it human-made? Who knows. P.S. Yes, I am paid by Royal Dutch/Shell to post deceptiv
