I always felt that Fuchsia was a make-work program to keep talented kernel engineers away from other companies. Sort of a war by attrition.

- surajrmal 1y agoThat's a weird rumor that I'm not sure I understand. Things are not that complicated.
- com2kid 1y agoMicrosoft used to legit do this in the 90s. Recruit bus factor 1 employees from competitors by offering them large salaries. It was much easier to cripple your competition back when there were several orders of magnitude less software engineers in the world.
- phendrenad2 1y agoIf it's even a rumor then I started it, I just can't imagine Fuchsia serves any other purpose. I don't even usually give Google a lot of credit, but I just can't imagine they made something this useless and misunderstood the feasibility of such an OS this badly. It would be like Hewlett-Packard in the early 2000s levels of incompetence.
