This reminds me when I got a “survey” email from ERCOT, the entity that oversees Texas’ “deregulated” energy provider racket. I was ready to lay into them hard, but starting with the second or third questions, it was clear that all they were concerned about was to _sell_ new products — ZERO interest in hearing feedback of how terrible the system for end users, they just want to sell some sort of outage insurance product (“would you pay $5 to be protected from a 30 minute or less outage one time?”).

I wouldn’t be surprised if there isn’t a less than noble ulterior motive behind this push, although I’m hoping for the best. Sounds like the main reason it may actually make sense to bring it back from their PoV is because ISPs have to deal with individual state laws.

> many boards are already integrating M.2 slots: https://pipci.jeffgeerling.com/boards_cm

Which ones are you seeing with M.2 slots? I've clicked a good 5-8 of the top listings from that list for which it would make sense to have such slot and they're missing it.

Can you give examples of the concepts you mention your kids are being taught in their middle school?

Also, another issue when not in WAL mode is that a long read will actually have a write lock and block writes.

> but one that will never be fixed due to backward compatibility

I wonder if a fork/"new version" could address this. Like, sqlite2 (v1.0, etc.).

Mac's OpenSSL should be LibreSSL 2.8.3 as of Big Sur 11.2.3; for brew openssl you'll have to wait till they update it.

I'm in the same boat but since I'm thankfully not married to RH-like systems I'm also considering things like Debian.
