Probably closer to say that Dropbox is a GUI on top of WebDAV

I still keep the Reference Guide on my desk to remind me of my roots and how far things have come and yet how much they remain the same.

"I can't accept Drum and Bass" is the greatest YouTube remix rabbit hole to go down

What did I miss?

The ground.

Clearly a POLA violation (principle of least astonishment)

So it using uncommon acronyms when you only referencing the thing once.

I found the post you're replying to helpful (and it made me laugh): I've come across the abbreviation POLA many times, with its non-jokey meaning "principle of least authority". I've also come across "principle of least astonishment" (Larry Wall or some other Perl contributor maybe?) but I'd never noticed that was (presumably?) a jokey reference to principle of least authority - I guess because I came across the joke first back was I was barely a programmer and I've never seen it abbreviated.

But maybe it never was a reference to POLA proper - "principle of least privilege" is more widespread I think, outside of the object capability community. And maybe "least astonishment" came first!

Interesting to look through the "starred" repos of that account ... seems like a hit list: https://github.com/JiaT75?tab=stars
