Algumas decisões idiotas deixam de ser tão idiotas quando são explicadas por quem as tomou (direto do Dana Epps’s weblog):

“I always wondered WHY they didn’t have tighter ACLs on the files, and today Raymond explains why.

Apparently they tried that. And it didn’t work well. Software installers had a nasty problem in which they didn’t like being told they can’t overwrite a file, and would fail miserably. Microsoft’s solution? Let the copy happen, and then overwrite the installer’s changes with the original trusted file later.”

O Vista parece que não vai ser tão bonzinho. Que bom.
