This has been posted a few times in the past month and a half. What's new in the latest version? Also, how does this compare to Transmit?

I'm not the OP but I use a 2008 Mac Pro: https://everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_pro/specs/mac-pro-eig... 8 cores, 32GB of RAM, 4 SATA drive slots - found it used for only $400 CAD.

A 2010 or newer Mac Pro would allow you to run the latest macOS version.

Can we get an alternate method for the signup process? My children who have devices don't have Google accounts.

The colors look a bit off from the video but the text is in there correctly.

Is it time to ditch the "normal" OS? My startup is looking to do exactly that but I would like to know what others thoughts are on the matter.

My proposal is to have a small exokernel between the hardware and the application. The exokernel is there to provide very simple access to the hardware (like the disk or network) and will rely on the application to do anything complicated (like handling TCP/IP).

The site barfs when I upload the BareMetal OS kernel for disassembly. Is there a size limit? The kernel is x86-64 and only 16KiB in size.

While its great the GitHub added support for this how about x86-64?

The 64-bit register names are still not handled correctly. It does properly color the 8, 16, and 32-bit register names.

Agreed on the overkill part. That is the reasoning behind the work we are doing. I sent you an email to discuss further.

How about 31 bytes?

Why use ELF or Linux? Flat binaries (and a custom OS) to the rescue! :)
