My utopia didn't turn out as planned!
The only way to "fix" the web is to kick everyone off of it. Or does Berners-Lee have a solution to fix people too. Ironic that he talks about unintended consequences and then asks for government intervention. He may be smart, but he's a fool.

The article says: Berners-Lee is hopeful about humans’ and systems’ capacity to improve.
The latter is disproven by windows, and the former is disproven by US and UK politics.
I'd be interested to laugh at see his research on the topics.

One of the more useful debugging advances that have arrived in the last decade is DTrace. DTrace of course needs no introduction: it’s a dynamic tracing framework that allows an admin or developer to get a real-time look into a system either in user or kernel mode. DBugging Dlite with DTrace

Microsoft has started to display notifications in the Windows 10 Action Center asking users to have a phone call with Microsoft developers and provide direct feedback about the ALT+TAB feature in Windows. New code quality idea - add the developer's home phone number to git commit!
We may overload the phone system in Redmond though.

How about talking to them about their broke-dick updates?

Microsoft asks users to call so they can be told to "f**k off" in person.
|
|
|
|

The article said: Microsoft states they are performing these calls in order to get a better understanding of how a feature is being used while they are in development.
I can save people a lot of phone bills.
It's used to switch between apps, you F***ing morons!
The same as it's been used since windows 3 (and maybe earlier; I didn't use earlier versions).
So what they're doing is looking for more ways to break it*, probably by making it work by touching or clicking the screen on a white square that's invisible on a white background.
* They already broke the functionality that allowed you to hold alt+tab, and use the arrow keys to move between the open apps -- including up and down and backward

FYI, use the WIN key and Tab to move through your windows with arrow keys, by the way!

Let's see you move up and down through the array of open windows, not side-to-side along the row.

Adobe isn't just putting Flash on ice. In the wake of customer emails, the software giant has signaled that it will discontinue Shockwave for Windows on April 9th, 2019. "You cannot kill what is already dead"

My mind is over complicating how difficult or easy will old 2000s web games will be playable in the future.
Hardware based console games are mostly can be emulated, or original hardware restored.
How much of a hurdle will it be to run a VM or Windows XP, install Firefox 5, then install Adobe Flash, just to find it complain "permission to run has been disabled due to lack of fetching Ads to server before the game"

I'm surprised someone hasn't recommended using Docker containers yet.
