Windows now Chromebooks?
Literally anywhere on Google. But it also makes sense when you think about ChromeOS & non-us aligned countries - what else are they gonna use?
HEY BUT DO YOU WANT TO USE A PASSCODE?? PASSCODE! PASSCODE! USE THE PASSCODE! -_-
Basically just skipping to the video linked, the article didn’t explain much. Anyway Acme is cool, there is a lot to learn from it. Mounting all RPC functionality as a filesystem is indeed very cool and very Unix. The mouse stuff is wack, the whole magic of vim is that you don’t need it, but it’s easy to imagine a version that doesn’t require it. Making “everything a command” is also indeed very cool, as well as the simple mental model. It’s kind of visual shell. I totally see how this thing was way ahead of its time and vim is still barely catching up in some ways. Though it would be very easy to add the gaps and keep all of the power

Because networking and public status is a big part of the job in high end silicon valley circles. You can get hired almost exclusively based on your follower count. You can land inter-business contracts and opportunities others can’t. You can leverage your reach to launch new products successfully. The jobs of executives are largely this. It’s not about having a moral stance on which social network to use, it’s about having access to the most eyes. I don’t blame them at all for doing what they do, it’s totally sensible. The question here is kind of like asking “why does MrBeast not just spend his day building his next set??” - because public status is how it all works
