"Applications create possibilities for millions of credulous
users, whereas OSes impose limitations on thousands of grumpy coders, and so OS-makers will forever
be on the shit-list of anyone who counts for anything in the high-tech world. Applications get used by
people whose big problem is understanding all of their features, whereas OSes get hacked by coders
who are annoyed by their limitations." ~ Neal Stephenson "In the Beginning Was the Command Line."
