*Microsoft’s concentration is on: 1) Azure; 2) Azure services like storage and — to some extent — Office 365; 3) Microsoft Office, and: 4) Windows. If something is your fourth priority it might as well not be on the list.
I sure hope my government still adresses things after #3 on their to do lists.
I've wondered for years now, who is the woman in the image with Cringely? Partner, coauthor, wife, daughter, model? (To be clear, I don't want someone to DOX her, just curious as to her relationship to Cringely's web site.)
(In no way trying to impact the perception of submitted text - just honestly asking for context.) I have a better question - who is Cringely ? It's the first time I hear of him. Is he some SV celebrity?
Now he blogs very infrequently, largely concentrating on his slightly-creepy obsession with IBM. The fact that he so easily gets duped by scammers pretending to be Google[1] and then actually blogs about it is quite indicative of how far his finger is from the pulse of technology.
So, no, you're not missing anything.

It has a similar vibe to this box cover from the 70's: https://www.le.ac.uk/press/press/mastermind1.jpg
What is buffer bloat and how do old routers contribute, how did new routers fix it? Also I didn’t realize broadcasters can sell their frequencies and it can be used for non broadcasting uses such as data? Is that true?
From wikipedia: > Some communications equipment manufacturers designed unnecessarily large buffers into some of their network products. In such equipment, bufferbloat occurs when a network link becomes congested, causing packets to become queued for long periods in these oversized buffers. In a first-in first-out queuing system, overly large buffers result in longer queues and higher latency, and do not improve netwo…

From the side bar next to the article: > Who's the pretty girl with Cringely? Learn more about Anina and 360fashion Both provided links are dead, but I was able to find a Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anina_(model) Looks like she is (or was previously) a model.
In 2010, Cringely promoted her "mobile-magazine-based-on-RSS" solution https://www.cringely.com/2010/03/11/the-94-percent-solution/ and included the statement: "this same content can be read today on two billion devices throughout the world. There will never, ever be two billion iPhones." Seven years later, we're half-way there: "Apple has sold more than one billion iPhones worldwide from 2007 to 2016" https://www.st…

...more for fun historical perspective than anything else. Lots of great anecdotes and stories about founders. The book became a PBS series that become a movie with Noah Wiley as Steve Jobs. And useful insight:
"As inventive organizations grow and mature, they often convert themselves into maintenance organizations, dedicated to doing revisions of formerly inventive products and boring as hell for the original programmers who were used to living on adrenalin rushes and junk food. This transition time, from inventive to maintenance, is a time of crisis for these companies and their founders."

Short story: he was a big deal back in the day, has had a couple pretty big stories but these days he's much less influential. Now he blogs very infrequently, largely concentrating on his slightly-creepy obsession with IBM. The fact that he so easily gets duped by scammers pretending to be Google[1] and then actually blogs about it is quite indicative of how far his finger is from the pulse of technology. So, no, you…
Whatever ISPs will do with no more net neutrality (assuming its not overturned by Congress) may affect the prediction about streaming. Guessing what this will result in is impossible.
