If that's the main point then not just the article Kent linked (which only mentioned it once) but every other article I've seen (many of which didn't mention alpha at all) is missing the point too by trumpeting Google's claiming it's making things faster and saving them gobs of bandwidth vs Mozilla claiming it needs larger file sizes to get comparable image quality.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

For the past 18 months, a small group of us led by Marshall Cline and myself have been hard at work on making a unified C++ FAQ available here at isocpp.org, as a wiki whose editing can be crowdsourced to keep it up-to-date with current information about modern C++. "There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses."

It’s 5PM. I’ve been working on the same code for hours, grinding out an implementation one line at a time. It’s been a torturous process. Some days, code just naturally flows from my brain to my fingertips. This is not one of those days. Don't forget to flush that stream

According to sources, Nadella largely impressed the audience of about 120 senior executives who gathered for an offsite recently, the first at which the new CEO ran the show. So follow me. Haha, caught you. You're fired.
