His design for an OS:
Yes indeed. The docs for VMS are great. Really cool environment.
On an unrelated note, have you seen this video yet?
I'm not surprised that the system lasted that long! VMS is legendary.
I've looked through the documentation for OpenVMS BASIC and it does seem like it was a nice platform.
The entire VMS system appears to be quite a comfy environment to have worked in. (DCL, help system, documentation, standard libraries, multiple languages (Pascal, C, BASIC))
What are some example ETFs in that space?
Commodities oriented ETFs?

If you've struggled to get into the Bible before, consider reading the NLT translation.
Read it slow. Maybe one chapter a day. (They're very short chapters.) It will take you a few years at that rate.
Start from the beginning. Read it in order.
NLT can be read online:

Don't let anyone tell you what it means. No church, priest, or pastor has a monopoly on these teachings. It's your journey.
If you don't feel comfortable going to a church, don't feel pressured to. If you ever sit down with even just one person to discuss your feelings on the Bible, then that is a church.

The Concussion Repair Manual by Dr. Dan Engle
I experienced this summer of 2020 on the California central coast. Symptoms lasted for about a month. Happened again around December 2020.
I had been on a high-carb low fat diet for a few months before the first incident. I think that may have made me more vulnerable to inflammation issues. I've since switched back to a higher (healthy) fat diet. Fat is protective for the brain.
What stack do you prefer these days?
It seems some folks still have their eye on the "full stack / single language" holy grail.
C++ finally has modules as of C++20.
Do you think there's any chance that the Haiku source code will be organized around modules instead of header files at some point?
Are the Jupyter notebooks that you refer to available publicly?
BOOLSHIT!
Gilad was (religiously) in favor of optional types. Did he come around to agreeing with the direction that Dart has taken (i.e. full static types)?
Have you considered having a way to render output in a graphical toolkit?
See for example:
https://github.com/dharmatech/PsReplWpf
which renders PowerShell output in WPF presentations.
