The Undocumented Microsoft “Rich” Header (2018)
It might just be nostalgia to the first computers I used, but the shear complexity, mystery, and stability that allows this stuff to accrete in Windows fills me with a sense of Wonder, even if it is also terrible.<p>Unix is very less bloated, which is better, but also means there is basically no sense of Wonder. So Linux, my daily driver, I gripe about, but Windows, which I thankfully never have to use, makes my eyebrows raise and lips smile from a safe distance.
