This is just sad, but seemingly true. So many people in the POSIX ecosystem just don't take backward compatibly as seriously as you have to, in order to be treated as a platform. I can still run games compiled for Windows in the 90s just fine. Want to back test your website on old versions of Webkit known to exist in many IoT devices? Basically impossible given the state of API churn and system "innovation".

Yeah, there's a lot of hyperventilating about quantum computing. This at least tries to give a mostly realistic picture of where we are, what needs doing before it becomes a reality, and why getting started this early matters. The two principals are that the first group to get Shor's algorithm running at a realistic scale will most likely be sworn to national secrecy. Second, agencies with fat wallets are definitely hovering data streams likely to have juicy secrets worth the cost of storing for a decade or more.

Colleague at work sent this my way. The 60's to the 90's truly had some great management philosophy and science going on before the dot-com-boom and big tech would come to dominate management discourse by fiat.

I love code sandboxes for services. Any tool that makes setting them up simpler is worth a look in my opinion. Haven't tested this out, but I'm keeping an eye on it.
Trying to situate the next few decades in the context of other country's backsliding helps understand what's likely in store. You won't be able to just vote for a reversal of what's likely to come to pass.
Great report picking apart many of the reasons for the price "shocks" we're seeing.
