i used inkscape for a project recently and was amazed how far it has come since the last time i used it, somewhere around 15-20 years ago. then it was quirky and homely, now it feels pretty professional. i was still able to crash it doing some normalish stuff though, so make sure to save your work often :-)

my impression is that gates was doing some pretty impressive computer programming for a good stint in his early days…

not the same as price fixing if their entire output is being shoveled into long term agreed-upon contracts, is it?
