Fuchsia is not a monolith in a design sense, though -- it's a microkernel, and the device interface is based on IPC, which means you can keep the kernel clean and simple, and put drivers elsewhere. For comparison, the majority of the Linux source tree is drivers and file systems. The kernel proper is pretty small. But because it's a monolith, it all has to live and evolve together.
I’m talking to the commentary about a dated cultural artifact sucking, championing of new hotness, a new culture that will develop around it and eventually fade as technology changes and the peddlers of the latest and greatest will largely say the same “wtf @ this mess”
But downvote reality of human progress that has occurred over and over
The opinionated nature of humans is bizarre, given that we keep, in a social way, repeating our dead relatives
We can fix the future from a past that won’t live to see it
It’s all nonsense for the majority of humans, but this little microcosm called HN has its finger in the pulse of what we’ll need in 2040!
