A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I could see this. For awhile in tech I found an advantage in understanding of the old issues with hardware like irq and memory as useful even after windows had papered over it all. That has fallen to the wayside as various cluster type of setups has become the norm and the individual host has become less important but it was surprising how much obsolete stuff was still sorta useful later. The halflife of tech information is short but it has a long tail.
