While this was informative, I don't quite understand the progressive change from concentration camps in nazi Germany to a fanatic escalating hate for.. Uh.. x86 architecture?
Sounds like a really, really wild ride to be on.
It's a more general thought. Our actions do not have immediate visible consequences. Thus we can break everything and think we are winning.
Also on the subject of Nazis it does possess some value, they loved analogies between relevant modern techologies of their time and sociopolitical events. Where the word "anschluss" comes from, by the way. It literally translates like "connecting", as with electricity. Well, electricity wasn't new, but radio was, Nazis used radio a lot and referred to use of radio to show how modern and revolutionary they are.
Important because it applies to leftists often, if you say "leftists made Trump" or "leftists made MAGA" or "leftists broke American democracy" or something like that, it'll sound clearly wrong, but it won't be. USSR was a clear case of using what others made and thinking that it's their own achievement by its administrators, most of its history, while first they were using the tremendous results of Stolypin reforms and then NEP (Lenin was a bit smarter than his buddies), and then selling fossil resources to support visibility of a working economy, but that's kinda off topic.
I'm not talking about x86 architecture, I'm talking about everyone using Java and Sun idea of the web, just slowly worsened and degenerate, first of all. Or Windows NT, it was fine in year 1999, but being stuck there for 20 years is just wrong.
So, back to our day and how it's useful, systems should have smaller latency for evolution to work well. Like those temples in Japan, which are constantly being rebuilt in all of their parts. You should be able to tear down a republic and build a new one in a couple of years.
Getting back to Nazis - if the system they captured had smaller latency, they wouldn't have managed to even annex Austria.
