It’s a tad out of date, but the Second Doctor claims he received a medical degree after studying under Joseph Lister in 1888.

It’s “FEX”, Valve have apparently been testing it with Proton.

The Asahi Linux team have their own packaging/tooling around it, but theirs is slower at runtime because they have to run the games inside a VM as well.

I think it’s unfortunately a given at this point.

And they’ll take credit for “stopping” it once they no longer need to hype it up of course.

Well there was Joseph Staten, worked on CE/2/3/ODST, went with Bungie when they became independent, then rejoined MS and ended up being “Head of Creative” on Halo Infinite.

They’re investing in “green metal”, using their own renewable generation to produce hydrogen.

Whether or not it works out is another matter, but he (Andrew Forrest) seems to believe in it and is willing to put his money where his mouth is.

At the kernel level you’re not going to be using package managers, or anything with a GC (rip D)

I don’t think C is particularly good, but it’s “good enough”, and nothing obviously better at these use cases has come along to displace it. It’s been around long enough that it “just is” the tool of choice for stuff for people.

Which of course leads to things like the Linux situation where it’s big enough that nobody actually understands how it all works or fits together.

They’re super useful, and it’s easy to get a US model in case you come across region locked blu-ray disks
