Yes, but it would move very slowly compared to current freight ships, think an order of magnitude lower average speed. (You can compromise on the freight features to get some more speed of course, but it's still going to be slower unle

The power has come down a lot and drops in shorter runs, from ~15w per port at the max 100M cable length back in 2006, to ~2w with todays tech and short cable run. There's of course fiber too...

PCIe is full duplex. And there's no requirement for ethernet ports to be able to do full tilt. Even with a 1x PCIe 3.0, a 10G port will be much much better than a 2.5G one. (But PCIe 3.0 of course is from 2010 and isn't too releva

The whole 2.5 G spec is a weird step for ethernet speeds too. It's unfortunate it took off.

Well, apps tuned for performance and apps using native code have more than a little overlap. Even back then there were a lot of apps besides games that used native code for the hot code paths. But games of course are huge by themselves, and

Well, they were targeting Android, and the apps were emulating ARM on x86, and they were going against a strong incumbent. Accounts on the web of this failure seem to bring up other failings as the main problems.

Think back to the x86 32->64 bit transition, but much worse, since ARM is more niche and there are more arch differences. You need all your 85 3rd party middlewares and dependencies (and transitive dependencies) to support the new archit

Interesting that Python cold starts are slowing so much in each newer version, ending up from 80 ms to 125 ms - not long before it's as slow as Node.

You could use a sandbox process and use some existing out of process calling system for it. This also disentangles the malloc systems of the modules.

JSON doesn't have schemas either, JSON Schema is just a separate schema spec that happens to build on JSON, but you might be using for example Zod instead of that. Similarly systems that consume EDN can have various schema systems. For
