"It takes a long time to understand" is synonymous with "can be improved."

I add this to my list of epic non-sequiturs. While it is not necessarily wrong completely, it is not correct for all the cases. It takes a long time to understand how it's ok to do without the latest version of the software. It takes long time to understand that old is not a synonyme for obsolete. And to have this understandings one needs experience, and for experience you need time, which cannot be substituted. There are some things that one only learns by rediscovering them, and this is one of them: who settles is happy.

I think the universe has a long list of outstanding feature requests.

I wanted to add a few feature requests so I went looking for god on github. I found god but unfortunately most of the universe has not been open sourced yet :-(

The physicists are trying hard to reverse engineer it though.
