Since both VS Code and Atom use Electron as a base, so if the basic premise of using JavaScript + the DOM to render a code editor / IDE were flawed (i.e. it could never be performant), then both systems would be having issues. This i

What you're essentially saying is: > It's impossible to have 100% safety, so let's not bother placing any importance on safety.

Well, this bug took down the entire system. What happens when self-driving software hits a similar bug? I don't think that there is any precedent for that sort of thing with manually driven cars. The scale could easily be larger than 1

Your comment is nothing but a rant. There is no constructive criticism, only you venting your frustration and anger while calling names and lashing out at anyone within reaching distance. This is not an effective form of communication. I

I think that the drop-downs are trying to prevent people from mistyping things and locking themselves out because "Accordien" doesn't match "accordion".

Really? As a long-time Vim user that switched to Spacemacs but ended up back on Vim, I've never used the space bar for movement. I'm curious do you also use backspace for movement?

Since this is about OCR'ing the ingredient lists, I think that it would be much more likely to have false mismatches than false matches.

Do the manufacturers change the UPC code when they update the ingredient lists? I doubt it. It's still technically the same item (and probably the same internal SKU too).
