4. Google drops the tilde operator
Dan Russell, from Google, confirms:
"Yes, it's been deprecated. Why? Because too few people were using
it to make it worth the time, money, and energy to maintain. In truth,
although I sometimes disagree with the operator changes, I happen to
agree with this one. Maintaining ALL of the synonyms takes real time
and costs us real money. Supporting this operator also increases the
complexity of the code base. By dropping support for it we can free up
a bunch of resources that can be used for other, more globally
powerful changes."

published.

23. Open Access (OA)
• Research Councils UK (RCUK) announced that beginning in April
2013, scientific papers must be made free to access within six
months of publication if they come from work paid for by one of the
United Kingdom’s seven government-funded grant agencies, which
spend billions of dollars each year on research.
