I’m curious how software can be created and evolve over time. I’m afraid that at some point, we’ll realize there are issues with the software we’re using that can only be remedied by massive changes or a complete rewrite.
Are there any instances of this happening? Where something is designed with a flaw that doesn’t get realized until much later, necessitating scrapping the whole thing and starting from scratch?
Yup, Wayland is so old it already has old concepts. But it is also changing a lot
Needs to be replaced already. They’re having to change to explicit sync, which they should have done from the start. So throw it out, start over, make X12.
