A huge number of everyday products have the potential to cause serious harm if they're defective, but they generally aren't regulated to the extent that hearing aids are. As a sibling comment points out, the threat of law suits ke

I think the general argument is that if someone is financially desperate, then it's not really voluntary. It's like asking why folks working under terrible conditions don't just quit.

The one feature of perforce (which my current employer uses) that I miss going back to git is the "time lapse" view. It's like git blame but you also have a slider that can scroll through the revisions to a file. This is sort
