I have always felt that that passage more than any other story sums up the spirit of the USA.

That episode was the first one where they began to cross over into true greatness.

That episode is one of my favorites. I love it when Picard takes the reins near the end.

I think what Zuck actually said was "companies over countries."

I am too young to be in the 30 year club but Emacs has served me well for more than a decade. I don't use it as a daily driver anymore but it holds a special place in my heart.

Using magit made me believe again that really good software can exist and that there are really great designers still among us.

Also super agree that Stallman's original ideas are only ever more increasingly valid. I will generously say that Stallman has been an imperfect messenger but the core message has always been solid. I have not regretted my FSF membership over the years.

Right, this was my assumption. I think my question got misinterpreted in terms of tone (viz the downvotes). But I was nurturing a hope that Mitchell might come back and say yes then share some wisdom. :)

> And at scale I've proven 10,000 active (input/output happening) terminals on a Linux server with 4 cores and 8 GB of RAM.

When you say you've proven, are you hinting at use of formal verification?

Hey all you sillies -- multi-tasking is not a thing. It never was. Please stop pretend you can split-brain when Mother Nature did not design you for it.

Here is the key: slow down. Slow down and focus on quality. Use AI to crush one task to high quality. Pour tokens on the problem until it shines. Derive lessons from that to apply going forward.

Learning and efforts to uncover patterns always require front-loading, even when moving fast/agile/blablabla. You need to learn what a good job looks like first before you try and scale up.

Ignoring this lesson WILL cause you to burn out. The Iron Triangle remains undefeated.

I think it's more they object to where the bombs got dropped.
