Not my video. Just felt it fits here for more discussion. Personally I do like the idea of more/better sandboxing for apps.

    That is a collection of some of the stupidest ideas I’ve ever seen.

    From his website:

    As far as I can tell OS design for the past 40 years has been centered around drivers. This is what the micro-kernel/monolithic debate is all about. I do not believe in drivers. In the Serene future there will be no drivers. With this insight we can move on to real innovation in OS design.

    What does that even mean? This has serious “quack” vibes.

    Edit: I just watched his q&a video. He’s reinvented DOS. He expects every program to just write their own hardware interface code. 🙄

      Sounds like a TempleOS advocate. Someone out of the 1980s where everything on a machine was integrated and standard across the line. If you stuck with a particular manufacturer. And didn’t look too close.
