I don't watch modern action movies precisely because they lack colors. We went from black-and-white to color to blue-and-orange cinema.

I'm aware of FUSE and used NTFS driver though it back then. So we should expect similar performance with microkernels?

Very theoretical question. If there was a usable microkernel, how hard would be it be to have an FS as a service? Are MacOS FS' processes or are they 'monolithic'?

Cables in Red Sea got cut frequently. All the time it's the same story - anchor dropped where it should not. Similar stories happen near Singapore.

But RAID-6 is the closest approximation to raid-z2 from ZFS! And raid-z2 is stable for a decade+. Indeed btrfs works just fine on my laptop. My point is that Linux lacks ZFS-like fs for large multi disc setups.

The sad part, that despite the years of the development BTRS never reached the parity with ZFS. And yesterday's news "Josef Bacik who is a long-time Btrfs developer and active co-maintainer alongside David Sterba is leaving Meta.

If AI is that good, can someone code a good XML library with AI? The spec is available. If AI is that good, there should be an explosion of Open Source projects of good quality. Neither of those is happening.
