If you want to see what the future of free operating systems looks like, watch free network TV. This isn't a good trend; who will be the HBO of operating systems?

Yes, that sounds about right. Spend the time necessary to understand before you inflict your lack of understanding on the world.

This is a developer tool. FOR DEVELOPERS. If the tools solve useful problems, who cares if they break later? We'll fix them. I would very strongly caution against Apple continuing to provide such a boneheaded IDE.

I'm sure all of Apple's customers agreed that, simply on principal, it was better that their e-mail was broken in the new OS release.

If you manually extract something and create a broken signature in the process, Gatekeeper helps you out by refusing to open the bundle in ANY application, and instead simply stating that the file is corrupt and should be deleted. I'

I don't use or like Gmail, but given that it's quite likely the most popular IMAP server on the planet, I'd say it's Apple's responsibility to their users to not break compatibility.

It's unique, and extremely sketchy to be pushing desktop data to Google, without prior explicit user approval.

Which is why you need a process for shipping out emergency fixes. Microsoft can do it in 24 hours, and on the desktop, the impact of a broken build for Microsoft is staggeringly large when compared to Apple.

I worked at Apple, in that department, so yes, I'm aware of what I'm saying and why. Stop trying to acquire internet points by being a jerk.

Huh? It's a one line change. The patch has to be validated across the entire testing matrix of their entire product line. That is a trivially parallelizable problem. Don't cargo cult 'common wisdom'; the only incompete

As a fellow Mac user: your apologism is showing. There is no justification for this bug. It never should have shipped. It never should have gone unnoticed for so long. It never should have been announced prior to a patch being available. No

My only takeaway from the thread was that you approached the process of patch review begrudgingly, and seemed to assume that everyone should understand/appreciate your node-derived vocabulary and design. Each iteration of the patch was

Which is exactly the sort of pointless "refactoring" that someone does instead of actual refactoring. It also makes merging back to vim difficult to impossible. Expect to see 'neovim' development dissipate rapidly.

"Modernized" means JSON-rpc IPC? If so, no thanks.

Your patches were broken. Now your answer is to fork? Sheesh. > The project is definitely showing its age, and I'd love for something new to replace it. Then start over. Refactoring it will be nigh impossible.
