Physicists have confirmed predictions of Stephen Hawking’s namesake theory of black holes using a black hole they constructed in their lab, according to a new paper. Wait a second. Back up. Laboratory black holes? Can I have one?

I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm, but they are referring to a sonic black hole, which is basically a drain hole where the water is flowing into it faster than the speed of sound. Sound cannot escape from this, but light can.
:waves hand : This is not the black hole you are looking for.

Last summer, I poked a hole in the sand on the beach, and water fell into it.
This categorically proves that everything said about black holes is true.

Performance has been a big focus area for Visual Studio 2019 Because sometimes I have to post comedy items
But I guess they have room pre-prepared for improvement?
And true, it's not Eclipse.

When I use Visual Studio, I literally never thought "gee, I wish this started faster." It was more swearing at the various bugs that they haven't bothered fixing in the nine years since VS 2010.

Startup time isn't bad (except for the ms account login crap - takes 3-10 seconds depending on the quality of your internet connection), When you create a custom template, it takes about 10 seconds to get to update the template cache the first time you create a new project after creating the template (even if it's installed on a SSD).

My VS 2017 up and ready (no project loaded) in 2 seconds including login to team account...
So I can't see what room left for start-time improvements - it is maybe time to solve real problems (memory hungry, hangs, closes without a hint)...

Good for you. My VS2017 takes about a minute to start. The only heavy add-on is VisualAssistX but on other VS version it does not weight that much.

In the paper, "Project Almanac: A Time-Traveling Solid State Drive," University of Illinois students Chance Coats and others look at how they can use the commodity storage devices already in a computer, to save the files without having to pay the ransom. You just have to accelerate the hard drive to 88 mph

|
|
Yeah, but is the cost of a power supply that can handle 1.21 jigawatts worth it? The ransom might be cheaper.

Oh, and it is so hard to overcome. Just think of ways to really delete your files on disk...

A common debate in software development projects is between spending time on improving the quality of the software versus concentrating on releasing more valuable features. "Come, give us a taste of your quality."
Longer than the normal kind of article I post, but I trust you can make it to the end.

Every place I worked at (Cricket, IDD, Adobe, WildTangent): new features (new apps) were the drug of choice for execs and program managers, and the cubicle-rats danced to the tune.
Academia is "far from the madding crowd" of such profit-driven enterprises in highly competitive arenas, where shiny new features get the media attention, and, do drive sales.
I'm not complaining: I had $ome great times !
Oh, did I forget this question was about the cost of the software to end-users

Is low quality software worth the eventual cost?

Ask any pro whether it is a good idea to lower quality.
If you truly believe in the value of low-quality, go find a surgeon that doesn't have a degree yet and tell them to agile your appendix.

He missed the obvious point:
If companies were compelled to show users how much of their code is cr@p, the problem would soon resolve itself.
Other products have to give specs, so why not software?
• Intuitive user interface
• 99,684 lines of cr@ppy code that we've never bothered to refactor

Idiots. The only path to successfully release new features is by ensuring the quality of software. Otherwise you're on the path to a slow and painful failure, as the poor quality of software begins to impede the ability to add new features.
Quality of software and releasing valuable features are not in opposition, they are two sides of the same coin.
