Both, as a user and a developer, I am very happy, that Microsoft 10 still ships with ActiveScripting, ActiveX and COM, as well as all the Win32 stuff. Because, anything, that came after that, was a pile of crap for power-users. Of course, t

This destroys the filesystem, but not the physical disk, right? I mean, will the SSD be usable after that, albeit, by installing a new filesystem and reformatting?

It must have been before that. I was on AmigaOS, during the 90's, and there was a (commercial) web browser named "Voyager", which came with Google as homepage/search pre-installed.

I feel, that, if someone would write a backup solution from scratch and use Rust, that may be a good selling point. Emphasis on scratch not on RIR ("rewrite in Rust") ;-) It would need to respect heterogenous networks (Microso

My Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-Lite does. The MIPS CPUs can have hardware offloading for special network stuff, or so I have been told.

The paths make sense. I.e. you got uninterrupted lines, surrounded by walls, so it is a real maze and not just a lookalike or partial maze. Oh, and it's a-maze-ing! :-)

This brings me to a very nice regular expression. It is the one being recommended in RFC3986 "Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax" by T. Berners-Lee, R. Fielding and L. Masinter https://tool

Wow! This is really cool. I just entered it quickly in a C64 emulator and it ran, creating a maze. Not sure, whether it would be a solvable one, but it is interesting to note, that the paths are really connected!

It doesn't make much sense to state things, I can't back up with references (I do not remember where I read it), but a few months ago I read, that by 2006 (or 2008) 60% of all web pages were XHTML. Now, whether that means, that th

You are right. Too little, too late. On a fair note, one should also take into account, that Saxonica is a rather small, even if highly skilled, shop and the program, they create, is a huge undertaking.

Coming from a different background, I wonder what this project tries to achieve? And why F#?

But wasn't that how OOP was supposed to be, according to Alan Kay? That objects should have resembled real life objects, as close as possible and exchange messages with each other?

Yes, it is. ISC is, for those who may not know it, an MIT license reworded, to match international jurisdiction, which implies certain rights from the ground up.
