Do the form of pipes create you some special mental state? Why would you call it bloat calling a function from grep and you do not call bloat when you do pipe? You do pipe or you call a function it is part of the same computer, it uses the same memory, the same processor. Pipe suck more than calling a function! You are trying to defend those badly written blackboxes, that had zero reusability in mind? Why did you never try to call a function in grep? Because everybody was obsessed about pipes.

Websites that need to do that they do. I hate google, but gmail is a web application, and does reload of WHAT IS NECESSARY. So I do not have to do reload. If I would have to do reload in gmail, I would move to the next... The simplest way to keep your working environment simple is not to start your computer. I hate bloat probably more than you, but this does not mean that I am open for NEW. >> I am vim user, but often miss derived >> views that eclipse like tool present.. > I piss on all those "modern IDEs" that consider themselves to be smarter > than me. you see... instead of thinking, you express your frustration or your bad experience with any employer who wanted to force you to use modern IDEs.

Keeping simple is hard. Well, how many time do you preach this sentence one day?
