Vorlons

[ffutures]

Saw on someone's tweets that Microsoft's latest free product (for javascript developers) is called Vorlon.js, and is supposed to be an all-wise all-knowing developer's aid, if I understand the article below correctly (I am NOT a javascript person).

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/eternalcoding/archive/2015/04/30/why-we-made-vorlon-js-and-how-to-use-it-to-debug-your-javascript-remotely.aspx?CR_CC=200629810

The trouble is that it describes the Vorlons as "helpful wise diplomats" or words to that effect. And to the best of my recollection it was almost impossible to get a straight answer from them at the best of times, especially if there was some sort of crisis. See, for example, the second half Drabble here.

Am I missing something?

They also turned to be vicious psychotic alien dirtballs who would cheerfully have burnt the lesser races of the galaxy down if it gave them an advantage in their all consuming war against the Shadows.

You're right, I'd forgotten that part.

Understanding is a three-edged sword.

Vorlon Technical Support is an even more frightening concept than relying on them for help in a war.

"Do not go to Vorlons for help, for they will say both...."
