They aren't a monopoly, hence why.

Depends if the AI masters also own said proprietary technology.

Well, GCL is (afaik) a Google technology, and they do have some kind of internal, fine-tuned models just for their stack.

Who owns the tech doesn't matter, what matters is whether there's a set of diverse examples of its use spread around the internet.


Yeah it's internal, and we have fine tuned models and more lines of it than you can imagine.

That's the reason I think it honestly depends more on the complexity to understand and the necessity of having a mental model of the code.


Actually no, that is what many without Windows background think.

WSL 1.0 was based on Drawbridge research project of library OSes, also used to port SQL Server into Linux.

See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46110904


Microsoft had to warn users that they would corrupt the original WSL subsystem if they touched Linux files using Windows tools:

> DO NOT, under ANY circumstances, access, create, and/or modify Linux files inside of your `%LOCALAPPDATA%` folder using Windows apps, tools, scripts, consoles, etc.

They did overcome that problem eventually, but by then everyone had moved on to WSL2.


That is no different from having file systems problems across OSes, as old as there are multiple OSes.

Even Linux best practices for SMB access have been as read only.


Sorry, but WSL1 was unstable by Microsoft's own admission.

That's why Microsoft abandoned it in favor of WSL2 running real Linux in a VM.


While UNIX is famous for everything is a file, in reality this concept is only true in Plan 9, in UNIX IPC not everything is a file.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. :)


In Portugal as well, both genders get listed when their time comes up.

Most likely no-one runned them, given the developer culture.

Depends on the company level, on my line of business, what companies care about are headless CMS, with AI workflows, and oriented towards MACH.

Ah, and all of them have partnerships with Vercel, and possibly Netlify.

Sitecore, Contentful, Sanity, Storybrook,...

If anything, they killed the need for backend skills, you get a ready made SaaS, program interactions with AI, and if anything requires backend like logic, it is taken care by Vercel or Netlify functions.


CMS is pretty much alive, even if most of them are now headless, oriented towards MACH deployments and AI based workflows.

I didn't know about MACH, interesting.

I made a thing [1] a few months ago because I wanted a lightweight expression of this.

Interestingly enough for the C and C++ folks, compiler specific dialects for embedded without standard library, are still argued for as if being C and C++.

I don't see the purpose to run containers on Android, the managed userspace provides everything I need, including code on the go apps, already sandboxed.

Also not a termux fan.


What are your concerns / objections to Termux?

People are holding it wrong.

Instead of embracing the Java/Kotlin userspace alongside C and C++ on the NDK, with the official APIs, they try to subvert into GNU/Linux.

First of all bionic isn't glibc, secondly the Linux kernel is only a matter of convenience for Google, which they could in theory replace by something else, while keeping the Java/Kotlin and the NDK C/C++ APIs.

Which is exactly termux isn't without issues on modern Android versions, not much different than using cygwin/mingw on Windows.


This is exactly Termux's point, to subvert Android into linux cheaply. Same for MinGW or MSYS2. I want to invest as few as possible on Andriod or Windows, while still able to use them in the way that I prefer.

What code on the go apps do you have in mind ?

Pascal N IDE, C# Shell NET IDE, Pydroid 3, Shader Editor, the paid versions.
