How many sanitize it periodically? And how many do use it while pooing? Or just after it without washing hands?

Take up less CPU time and memory? What amazing tech is this?! I'm so glad someone went to the effort of proving reality

The reality of NIH is completely different from what I expected and I’ve been encountering it for far longer than I thought. Invented here means maintained here as well

I have encountered NIH mostly as war tactics.
Let me give an example: Lots of CP members are old enough to remember the Network Wars of the 1980s between the OSI and TCP/IP protocol suites. Some of you may have noticed the name Harald Tveit Alvestrand[^] - IETF chair 2001-2005, and a member of the ICANN board 2007-2010.
Harald and I were study mates at the University, belonging to the same social groups. He most certainly did not start out as TCP/IP man, but belonged to the OSI camp. MIME was under development in the late 1980s. As one of the primary developers of an X.400 implmentation at Norsk Data (for those not into OSI terms: X.400 was the OSI alternative to SMTP), he was intimately familiar with how multimedia, authentication, and directory lookups were designed in X.400 - all of this was fully developed for the 1984 OSI standards. So Harald was sent as delegate to the IETF to present the solutions established in X.400, to ensure that interoperability between SMTP and X.400 would be possible (or if possible: Simple).
I met him after he returned from the USA. He was shocked: When presenting the OSI solutions, the TCP/IP guys had told him, straight in the face: OK, if that is the way OSI does it, we will find another way. We are most certainly not going to adopt any OSI solutions!
The meeting, which officially had been invited to coordinate and harmonize SMTP and X.400 turned out to be a way to get to know "The Enemy". As a famous guy said: Support whatever the enemy opposes, and oppose whatever the enemy support.
These were days of war, and it is the most extreme case of NIH I have ever heard of. Yet, I see very much of the same in other battles, such as the Linux/Windows wars, iPhone/Android wars, web browser wars, programming language wars. Adopting solutions from the enemy / competitor is a sign of weakness. By ignoring (/abusing) the practices established by the other part, you make your solution stand out as distinct from the competitor (e.g. by a different menu layout, a different charger, different terminology). It is all war tactics.

On the surface, build latency is a purely technical problem. But humans experience and respond to it in interesting ways: forming expectations, making choices, and organizing work around build latency and similar factors. Then you will see that it is not the build that is slow, it is only yourself.

The File Explorer in Windows 11 seemingly has its flaws. Bugged as designed?

This sounds like a lack of testing.

Or maybe an actual test for the improvements of 21H2

With just a few weeks to go, Microsoft has issued a reminder to users of this two-year-old version of Windows 11 that support is coming to an end. More than this, the company has warned users of Windows 11 21H2 that they should expect to be forcibly upgraded to a supported version of the OS very soon. Upgrade...or DIE!

There are so many improvements in Win 11 22H2 that anyone not upgrading had better have a real good reason, such as industrial equipment that won't handle the upgrade.

I actually held off on Windows 11 in the workplace until I had a chance to test v22H2. Definitely UI improvements, but still not up to Windows 10 UI capabilities. v22H2 is also more stable than v21H2.

And why 21H2? Is not a bit late for that?
