   Here's my constant question:

   Everyone's going so fast that they keep hitting walls. Review, CI, product asking for things, whatever.

   Why have we not seen an improvements in products?

   While every post and thread feels like a 90's wall street office, the new android and iphone ship with fewer features than usual. No indie guys come up with a linux-sized alternative OS. Switch 2 remains unhacked. Windows takes 3 seconds to show the right click menu.

   Is everyone just running full speed in circles or something?

      go and look at how the good people and claude over at rsync are fixing all their bad security bugs currently: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;RsyncProject&#x2F;rsync&#x2F;commit&#x2F;42f7c32ce51d8e0f1bd1ab7d27f0ef2338775b67" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;RsyncProject&#x2F;rsync&#x2F;commit&#x2F;42f7c32ce51d8e0... Also: any Linux-distro-bugtracker...

      So: while running in circles might be a bit of an exaggeration, it seems (which maps to my experience) these things are much less AGI than reporting might suggest...
