Microsoft doesn't do well naming its browsers.
People don't usually want to live on the Edge, i.e. you should be using Chrome!

I'd disagree with that to an extent: Visual Studio and Excel are truly wonderful. SQL Server is pretty damn good (but VS and MSSQL don't meet your revised category).
Win 7 - a consumer product if ever there was one - was very good, The Halo series was well worth a go on XBox, Flight Sim, Kinect ...
I think it's just when they forget to decide where to go and what to do that they lose sight of what users actually want. And then they produce total cr@p.

that's why I revised, agree their developer apps are OK.
Win 7 was dev and consumer friendly, ... they took a huge part of the dev friendly away 8 onwards - to heavily focusing it [badly] at the consumer.
Even though stuff works, 10 really only got worse for devs.
Same was true for xp: dev and consumer friendly - which is why it still lasts.
2k was too broken - spent as much time fixing [reinstalling] the os as debugging apps,
vista was sh*t bolted on the 50% of the 2k inner core that was not fixed due to a rush to market,
luckily they completed the re-core and cleaned up integration to interface/devices in 7.

this
is
a
test
of
the
preview
box
Nope, seems to work fine with Edge... 
And it is my default browser...
Tabbing did cause the cursor to disappear, probably went to a different control ("Click to edit signature"). A click back in the edit box restored it...

0.No.. real developers use Tor ! No sorry that is for the weed order  , I mean real developers use Chrome, Firefox, IE , Opera, Safari !
I fall off the Edge  ing !

Developer consumes network filter (8)
Slogans aren't solutions.

Permeate?
Developer "Perme" (though I'd want an "i" in there)
Consumes "Ate"

Bit surprised no-one got this one ...
Developer = CODER
Consumes
Net = LAN => coLANder
Filter = Colander (an essential for every kitchen and the most fashionable headgear around).
Slogans aren't solutions.

Oh ... bother (he said, remembering the KSS rule at the last moment)
I had CODER, but I got stuck trying to fit WEB, NET, or ATE in there ... 
Well done! Good clue.

I am looking for data about the distribution of floating-point operations - what percentage are additions/subtractions, what percentage are multiplications, etc.
My Google-fu isn't working today, so I would appreciate any pointers.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I can't understand this. You want to know how many addition, subtraction, multiplication and division operations are performed in the World?

The time unit is arbitrary.

I remember reading that someone had performed such an analysis, but I can't find any pointers to it.
The idea was that additions/subtractions are more common than multiplications, which in turn are much more common than divisions/square root. This implies that optimizing the less common operations is likely to give a lower return than optimizing the more common operations.
As I said, my Google-fu is non-functional today.
