#185201 - Software Bloat - or Feature Bloat? Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Much of the so-called "bloat" in (particularly) desktop software is largely due to feature bloat rather than any specific inefficiency of the code.
It takes a lot of code to do all the fancy colours, smooth roundy edges, multimedia, gesture recognition, etc, etc, that are now standard. |
