I noticed this talk re Palantir. Previously my quick take on what they're selling is that they're "duct tape" joining up data and apps from wherever. An OS inside a specific machine is also duct tape joining up drivers, apps, storage, file formats etc, so Palantir has a point, in calling their product an OS. True, it might be more accurate to say "metaOS" or "NetOS" or "distributed OS" (meaning network not necessairily internet) but I'll give it to 'em. It's an OS of a kind.
