In the 90s and early 2000s server uptime might be counted in multiple years and extremes in the decades

The industry can barely keep an npm update from breaking the world now.. and that’s build tools and environments and so it’s independent of “we use stable languages”

Now add the possibility of political sanctions on ISA licensing and you have -

Hardware that’s fails quicker and may not be available to buy, software that barely builds months later, and a world where the US president can sanction entities at will if they don’t comply…

Yeah, open source isn’t all that’s required
