🚨| WATCH: Speed went to Walmart to cool off after the Argentina match but ended up seeing Messi EVERYWHERE from employees wearing Messi shirts to Messi promos all over the store 😭💀
The biggest bottleneck in contemporary computing is becoming the operating system.
Right now we have three choices:
▫️ macOS: beautiful walled garden
▫️ Windows: 20 years of bitrot
▫️ Linux: wild west
None of them feel truly built for the AI computing age.
We need something entirely new.
Who’s making it?
I'd open source windows and make it free for lifetime. Once license for 50 years no matter how many interations of windows are released. If needed recreate from kernel level and make it super efficient as similar to macos in the sense of performance and instantaneous task handle.
If Microsoft made me CEO?
1) I would issue a Windows Pro SKU that lacked any upsells, bloatware, monetization, coercion of defaults, or unnecessary telemetry. It would be an annual license, enforced by activation.
2) Double down on gaming and backward compatibility as the killer advantage, which ensures PCs remain relevant in the homes and thus minds of decision makers.
3) I'd open-source portions of the Windows shell, WinUI components, utilities, and file system tools (similar to how they open-sourced parts of .NET and VS Code). Let the community fix the jank.
4) Then I'd make bash the default shell one day because I'd had too many Long Islands at lunch.
