Video 1️⃣ - Arch Linux: The Cult of the “Elite” and the Whole Truth About the Arch Wiki
Arch Linux has always been a distribution with a reputation of being “for the elite”: the terminal, manual installation, rolling release, and the “I use Arch btw” meme. But in recent years, a real surge has begun around Arch: SteamOS on the Steam Deck, a wave of hype, audience growth, and… new risks, including problems with the AUR and attempts to sneak in malicious packages.
🔥 Video 2️⃣ - Let’s Talk About Alternative Operating Systems
An overview of all relevant modern operating systems.
Although the video is old (2015), it is no less absorbing. It took the author 50+ minutes just to list all the operating systems known to him. In general, I recommend it👍.
Video 3️⃣ - RUST: The Programming Language That Will REPLACE C and C++?
In this video, we will examine the history of the Rust programming language - from one developer’s personal side project to a technology now used by Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Tesla, Discord, and the Linux Kernel.
Video 4️⃣ - HOW DID GOOGLE STEAL ANDROID?
Remember Pablo Picasso’s phrase: “Good artists copy, great artists steal.” This phrase is repeated more than once in the film “Pirates of Silicon Valley”, which tells how Apple stole the idea of the system from Xerox, and Microsoft stole it from Apple. Did you know that Google also has something to answer for?
Video 5️⃣ - How Did AI Take Away VIDEO CARDS? The Secret of SHADERS
At the dawn of computer games, graphics developed by leaps and bounds: there was room to grow. What made games suddenly look much better in the early 2000s? We are talking about shaders - a feature invented for beautiful and realistic visuals in games. But it was this feature that changed the direction of the entire industry! How?
Enjoy watching 📺.
