Seems AI-written. Doesn't give any justification for MacOS being better for older hardware than Linux or even Windows. You won't be getting updates for your Intel hardware on MacOS, so you're right back where you started with Windows 10 going EOL.

Web software is incredibly simple. Having someone's ruby code doesn't really help you much. Hackers just try a few SQL injections, stuff script tags into all of the form fields, and call it a day. More advanced hacks on webapps are virtually unheard of. Certainly custom-designing a hack for some company isn't going to happen. It's a waste of time, because chances are you won't find some complicated hack that wasn't already exposed through the spamming techniques I mentioned above. And most larger, "worthwhile" companies tend to run their own in-house CI and not use Circle.

Most people will just update their keys, so I doubt anyone is going to burn botnet cycles on trying to use the keys.

Who said I was scared? I'm just pointing out that the phrase you used it very vague and some interpretations can be scary. It pays to be specific, especially in tech and medicine, you know? Winkyface.

I'm not sure why it took so long, but I think that lawyers dragging their feet probably wasn't it. I'm guessing that they would have never announced the release, unless the lawyers had already signed off on it. I think instead, it took them 5 years to make the landing page (something like this would normally take two years, but the pandemic wasted three years of that time.)

Then you just need to find an angel investor. The capital has to go somewhere. The wealthy aren't just going to leave their money in publicly-traded stocks, they want some risk in their portfolio.

This. People underestimate how much technological progress has been slowing every decade. 2008 was even slower than 1998, which was even slower than 1988. Meanwhile almost nothing new has happened since 2013.

Damn, there goes my Apple Lisa vs Amiga comparison video! I was going to get so many YouTube views! Meh, maybe I'll make it anyway. So sue me!

> the Apple Software may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S. embargoed countries

I'm sure keeping Iran from getting this valuable software from 1983, which runs on a completely dead CPU architecture that Linux doesn't even support anymore, is very important!

(But seriously, as a license geek, and not a lawyer, the wording of this license is really interesting. It seems to have completely different disclaimers than you usually see in open-source licenses...)

I was there in those days too. VB was a very beginner-friendly language, more akin to what we call today "low-code" than other languages. Those developers didn't have to "re" learn software development, as you think, instead they probably never knew software development well enough to use languages like VB.NET (which is what all of the VB devs I worked with ended up on). "C# and .NET" is equal to any language you can think of in terms of complexity, so C# devs are going to be just fine.

What? The comments here are very on-topic as far as I can tell.

Source availability.

The Windows team probably has laptops with high-speed SSDs, and tons of RAM, a fast CPU, and a fast internet connection. So now already with that, 13 seconds is probably down to 3 seconds, and they are probably also okay with (sometimes) waiting 3 seconds while the search box opens after pressing the windows key.

Woah woah woah, who said this is "secret"? Were you expecting a big red skull and crossbones to take over your screen whenever a phone home occurs?

ChatGPT thinks it knows everything, god.
