There's all sorts of problems with the academic institution as it stands, but I don't think forcing anyone to retire at an arbitrary age is much of a solution.

But I agree that the problem with science starts there, in academia. The barrier to entry and the ideological loops you're asked to jump through; Well, you're told that's just how it is. Imagine carrying that attitude into your Scientific career because, well that's just how it is, if you want to be funded. Doesn't leave a lot of room for progression, only products.

I imagine Facebook uses highly monitored virts that are spawned and destroyed constantly. I really wouldn't call them "servers" more like instances or staging hosts for containers. Root exploits aren't so serious in a ethereal state..

Can you get away with ignoring Turing? sure. But it's not going to be a "great markup language"

Victims? Why would this requirement cause development difficulty? If anything it would make it easier to deliver, and a lot easier to develop alternative parsers for, and easier to extend as well. We figured out all these things a long time ago but then ignored them because we thought we knew better then those who came before us.

systemd is fine for single user systems and perhaps verts, but I would never deploy it on a server. The deprecation of cgroup v1 is a welcome change. It's come a long way, but it still has a very long way to go.

They're still predicting shift away from silicon is another 5 years out. No, really. It's been 20 years+ at this point they've been developing alternatives and they can make chips but they're far from being competitive with silicon in any metric. It's called single crystal complex oxide or SiC
