bleeding edge

[Mark Kohut]

Thanks, Rich, I have sent parts of this around the "leading edge' of the twitterverse...

Penguin has set no date yet, nor knows much, they say.

Subject: bleeding edge

sounds right up Pynchon's alley here:

Bleeding edge technology is a category of technologies incorporating
those so new that they could have a high risk of being unreliable and
lead adopters to incur greater expense in order to make use of
them.[1][2] The term bleeding edge was formed as an allusion to the
similar terms "leading edge" and "cutting edge". It tends to imply
even greater advancement, albeit at an increased risk of
"metaphorically cutting until bleeding" because of the unreliability
of the software or other technology.
