In the<br /> [[MiddleAge]], when two knights agreed to rendezvous in Paris after spending ten years on battlefields, they<br /> had no choice other than to be at the designated place at the designated time. <br /> Otherwise, there would be no chance that they would ever see each other again. The [[MiddleAge]] promise<br /> could last years.<br /> <br /> Nowadays, when you want to meet with someone, you<br /> simply negotiate the approximate date and an hour of the meeting and phone the other to confirm validity<br /> and settle details. Mobile phones are the root cause of modern people being able to break their original<br /> promises!<br /> <br /> This affects how the whole society behaves and also how (lightly) many developers treat their promise<br /> of [[BackwardCompatibility]].</div> Mon, 05 Nov 2018 10:36:08 GMT JaroslavTulach https://wiki.apidesign.org/wiki/Talk:MiddleAge
