That cannot be true based on any logical thinking. It would be amazing if that were the case. That people fleeing in Nakba all said “we will go anywhere but the remaining unoccupied Palestinian territory”
You are using characterisations there rather than facts. Or irrelevant facts, such as how the leader was elected. Think about who else in history has been democratically elected.
Courts can only deal in facts otherwise they are ineffective.
Courts that care about “optics” are ineffective. And there are no optics here that will please everyone. So just follow law.
Yes I take blockchain to mean proof of work (or proof in general) validating blocks such that you can track time to some extent in a system that cannot be sure of time because of being distributed and nodes not being trusted.
XP was peak if hardware compatibility is important.
Then it went downhill slowly. UI decisions and telemetry and now needing an internet connection and a MS account to install and now Win11 refuses to install on perfectly good but older hardware.
Microsoft cloudifying Office ironically makes going to Linux as a normie fairly easy as Office is the only thing I would miss. And mainly due to it’s dominance rather than it being great.
Windows dark side is a shame as MS as a developer’s company is really good. VS, VSCode, Typescript and C# and F# are awesome. And also some changed to Windows are good.
Haskell - the rabbit hole to category theory and all the mad stuff Haskell people get into (compilers, proofs etc.)
Bitcoin - love or loath it, technically it is a marvel. At the time Bitcoin came out I was musing on the same problem but never could figure out how to avoid double spends and would never have come up with blockchain!
I think the thing to focus on is solving the customers problem rather than starting with “how do I use AI”. You may end up not using AI or just for a single feature of a bigger product.
The book The Mom Test warns about asking other people about your ideas. Usually because your mum will say “thats a great idea” but the opposite can also be a problem. What you need to know is if people will buy your product. Do market research! Maybe make an MVP and do at least people use the thing alot because they need it or see if people will buy it.
