Seems like it might be a better link
TIL that CORBA is still around, and that someone considers it modern.
Also the bad too. These days it's just a sign a symbol for bad, but in this hyperreality we dont know the referrant, dont know the lessons of the bad either.
But i want to hear the good most of all. And how good was avoided, missed, unfulfilled. Because it I think like so much else might possibly have gone great, if things & times & adoption had been only slightly barely different. It was just too soon for open source, is a huge possibility in my mind.
Also comparison versus DCOM/OLE would be informative, for historical context.
Good, I guess, but I wonder how much will break.
That seems like a lot of new CJK characters! How did they end up with so many new characters after so long? Is there some gradual process of adding historical or extremely rare characters, or were some deliberately left out of earlier versions?
One random example I opened (https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2017/17099-haifeng-county-uax45....) is a 9 page PDF proposing a single character used for "congee shop signs in Haifeng County".
> Why do we get to use the "bottom left part of glyph is damaged" modifier only for hieroglyphs? :(
(It'd be interesting to consider modifiers not always necessarily needing to be pre-encoded... to allow casual flexibility in implementation)
Wifi and Honk are new symbols.
(Tiktok/instagram will be thrilled... "can I get a honkkkk". (Im ok with the idea but honking is in general a nuissance that needs to be shut the f down, huge anti-social problem)).

The design of CORBA was based on critical assumptions that simply weren't true, leaving the application developer to deal with all the essential complexity.
