Who cares for a weather forecast that is 280 years out of date?
Religious freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make five.

Meanwhile, back on Earth, we can be sat looking out at torrential rain whilst the BBC Weather app tells us there's "0% chance of precipitation" at our location.

The BBC employs reporters. If one is looking for accuracy, one should consult the gentlemen of The Times.

An operating system on top of a distributed database, DBOS is a tantalizing glimpse of something that may eventually turn out to be cool. Databases all the way down

I can see how this would work for file systems, but how would it handle process isolation, resource allocation, etc. in a performant manner?

Didn't Microsoft already give up on this idea for the release of Vista?
It was too resource intensive for the PCs of the time. Maybe it might work better now.

Arc on Windows also represents an important milestone in getting Apple’s Swift apps running on Microsoft’s OS. Good luck with that

Hate to say it, but they need to hire at least one of MS's icon designers.

This language is designed to meet the evolving needs of API developers, architects, and managers in an environment where the delivery of consistently high-quality APIs and related experiences is becoming increasingly complex and critical. An API API

Despite seemingly exiting Microsoft, Bill Gates still plays a major role in the firm's decision making process. You can take the Bill out of the executive office, but you can't make him give up the keys

The way I read this is that the outbreak of AI was unexpected, so Nadella needed some advice to capitalize upon the opportunity, and he trusted Bill to offer some suggestions.
I doubt that Gates was maintaining any kind of controlling role with the company.

“We are doubling down on this very important work, putting security above all else — before all other features and investments,” Nadella said Thursday afternoon, after the company’s fiscal third-quarter earnings report. I'll believe it when I don't have to post about it

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
