Sorry, if I offended you. I tried to finish with humorous sentence - I read
yesterday article about selling and salesmen. There was sample of Ford
salesman who was asked about how good their cars are. And the answer was :"
I don't know, I drive Volvo". Maybe I should have put more smileys after the
last sentence (about Oracle).
I don't blame FB developers, but those who wrote this bug - whoever they
are.
I'm not very happy with big companies attitude to bugs. Other example from
Borland - in their BC++ 5 (3-4 years back) they had error in one of the
header files (richedit.h I think) - open comment /*. Of course it's easily
fixed, but not for the beginners. The same mistake is still in their
BC++Builder 4 !!!! I don't know easier bug to fix.
But take small developers - they can't afford to lose clients and maybe they
have associate more with their products. When some bug is found in IBO, then
the fix comes up in days if not in hours. And that's done with only by 1
person - Jason.
