@Douglas A. Whitfield Wow, the exact opposite of how I feel:
The trackpad on my Linux laptop has left side right side click and I wish I could turn it off. Two fingers is the superior alt click, distinguishing by placement is as bad as on-screen keyboard without the screen. -

@Nobody [LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1)] Every month. But not always the 15th because already the Roman calendar was seriously messed up.
> The Romans did not number days of a month from the first to the last day. Instead, they counted back from three fixed points of the month: the Nones (the 5th or 7th, nine days inclusive before the Ides), the Ides (the 13th for most months, but the 15th in March, May, July, and October), and the Kalends (1st of the following month). Originally the Ides were supposed to be determined by the full moon, reflecting the lunar origin of the Roman calendar. In the earliest calendar, the Ides of March would have been the first full moon of the new year.

@Nobody [LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1)] Nice!

This meshes well with my own observation while working on flow-based programming.
Our implementation was effectively single-threaded (greenthreaded on Racket), and many connection and communication patterns should be possible for the engine to optimize down to simple function calls.
When profiling the fractalide engine, the load code of which is actually itself built as an FBP graph, most of the time was spent sending and receiving messages, and many services are written as "read IN, do thing, write OUT", whereas the consumer is written as "write SERVICE_OUT, read SERVICE_IN", where consumer.SERVICE_OUT -> service.IN, service.OUT -> consumer.SERVICE_IN, which in the end is just a very expensive synchronous function call. -

@Nobody [LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1)] Everyone makes their field-specific observation of general phenomena. 😀
