IDK. Plenty of "operating systems" are linked as a single binary with the application, in the embedded world and historically. This takes it a bit further but I doubt you think the dividing line is "OS and application are mai

Yeah... my biggest question is why it hasn't been tested on hardware. Dev doesn't own an x86? Also the author refers to the (raw/MBR-format) disk image twice as an "iso" which makes me shudder.

Meanwhile, this kind of attitude in users is exactly why everyone is stuck with dumbed-down, more complex/more buggy, less powerful solutions. The more information is available at people's fingertips, the less people are willing t

That's how literally anything which is "executable" works. You just point the interpreter (kernel, ld-linux, php, python, ...) at a file, and it runs the file.

The things you mentioned in your second paragraph are precisely why. Because there is no shortage of "devs" who took a month-long training course and think they know everything there is to know about PHP, who will get the thing yo

If I'm doing my math right, $900,000 from ads @ few dollars CPM = few hundred million impressions - not bad!

You are the one who said body of work, the other person said portfolio. Stuff that you can't share isn't a portfolio.

It seems like this is just watching a file for changes and then calling reload on it? What am I missing?

Dislikes are not meant to be constructive. They're meant to warn others that a video may not be worth watching. I'm not sure why you're expecting your viewers to be your reviewers.

It's supposedly about "creator well-being", which I basically read as creators get downvote brigaded and get upset. Which is simultaneously silly, and also will still happen because they're still going to show the dislik

There would need to be a billion people in the US for us to run out of SSNs. I find it highly unlikely that our population will triple in 70 years. The Census Bureau finds it unlikely, too, considering they expect us to add only 76m by 2060

Now what happens when there are 10 of these blocks? Embedded within or called by 10 other blocks that also have duplication? Duplication displays exponential growth.
