In 2003, Microsoft showed off WinFS for Windows Longhorn. The idea was fascinating: a relational storage system built on SQL Server technology, layered over NTFS. Instead of finding everything through folder paths, you could query metadata and relationships between documents, emails, photos, and contacts. Microsoft even demonstrated SQL-based access to the data. Then they removed it from Vista and canceled WinFS as a standalone product in 2006. Still wish they’d shipped it.

It’s totally incredible they were able to fly this beast in from space as an unpowered glider.

In 1994, software was dead. People told me programming was for nerds and that I should become a doctor or a lawyer instead. In 2004, software was dead. People told me that someone from India would take my job for $5/hour. In 2014, software was dead. People told me that no-code was going to kill every job and doom my career. In 2024, software was dead with Devin, Windsurf, Copilot, and OpenAI o1. We kill software every 10 years, and yet the demand for good Software Engineers has never been higher.

Surface Duo done right. I'm just not sure about the island for the camera lenses. I'd probably prefer a smaller bezel at the cost of worse lenses. #appleevent

We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics. The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. The problem concerns whether the description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.
