“Windows Server 2019 is a case in point, and going through the highlights shows it. Back in the day, when a new Windows Server release came out, everyone was obsessed about its scalability and reliability and how it compared to alternatives such IBM i, a slew of Unix variants (including IBM’s own AIX), and the IBM mainframe platforms: VSE, OS/390, and VM. We all dug through the manuals to see how many processors or cores or threads it could span, how much memory it could address, what the impact of SMP or NUMA clustering was on performance, how the I/O was architected to match whatever new gizmos were on the PCI-Express bus.

“All nations, of course, suffer some degree of corruption. Mathurin told me a simple test to determine if a country’s corruption level is at risk of reaching a point of state capture: just see if there is a class of entrepreneurs and small-business people with enough confidence in the government and the infrastructure to invest in businesses that can only succeed in a market that allows for the unconnected to thrive, based on their merit.
