> From that moment on, unix followed me through all stages of my life: the toddler phase of keeping up with the cutting-edge Ubuntu releases, the rebellious teens of compiling custom kernels for my Thinkpad T61p and emerging the @world on Gentoo, the maturity of returning to Ubuntu lts and delaying upgrades until the first dot one release, and to the overwhelmed parent stage of becoming a happy macOS user.

I started off as a Linux zealot and followed a very similar trajectory. I think it’s a sign of maturity to realize there is no absolute “best” in engineering, just a best solution in a particular problem space, and Windows is the best for a large number of users for a reason.
