Go will get you 90% there in performance. I recommend that instead of C++ because it compiles fast for that edit-build-refresh cycle. Go also has the benefit of producing static binaries by default which solves a lot of the problems Docker

Is there anything like this for Rust or C++? I like the idea of code generation instead of doing the work at runtime (like in ORMs). This is like making your database schema the IDL spec.

Consider wages 10xing and taxes becoming over 50% and it's not hard to see how firms would have to charge more money for their products just to remain in business. UBI is central planning of the economy, where the government decides th

You don't get it. The cost of labor would rise. You would have to pay paper factory workers more when they could just not work at all. The truck driver also needs to get paid more. The shelf stocker also needs to get paid more. The sec

There are no controls. Once you put something like that in place and create a dependent population, there is no going back. It would take a violent revolution to repeal it.

I like the idea of Nix. It's definitely the future of package management and build systems. But it's solving a problem we knew how to solve in the 80s: dependency hell is solved by statically linking everything. In fact in the Win

What about WebView then? Surely you can run 10 desktop apps that use WebView because it's just like having 10 Chrome tabs open.

Sure, just look around, do you see any successful micropayments processing companies? Do you use any of them? If any of them were successful, you wouldn't be asking this question. There was a wave of micropayments startups about 6 year

It won't happen all at once. Linux already coexists with Windows through WSL and virtualization. The real work is in porting the APIs that the core MS products make heavy use of (DirectX, .NET, GDI, etc.). The old Windows kernel will r
