This is great stuff that is totally left out of other articles.
The kroger trial has a ton of that too. I mean it's right there in the witness testimony, but, instead of adding great quotes or paraphrasing what the witnesses say, other articles just ask professors or outside "experts" for comments, which are obviously slanted and boring.
Thanks Tom. So many major events happening in the world these days it’s hard to stay on top of it all. Fortunately you are keeping us in the loop on this trial.
'Interesting as “deprecate” is a common tech euphemism for the elimination of features'
This isn't quite accurate - it's a technical term rather than a euphemism, and it means '*not* removed *yet*'.
'Deprecated' means 'this is still available and will currently function for backwards compatibility, but should not be used for new work and existing systems should stop using it if possible'. It often implies 'will be removed in the future', but doesn't have to, and 'in the future' can be quite a long time.
If someone in the industry said 'we have deprecated X' when they actually meant 'we removed X', they'd get hammered over it by colleagues/clients - it'd be about like a doctor saying 'the patient is in critical condition' when they actually meant 'dead'.
