   Computers boot directly into the browser. IDEs are just a web app now, running in the GPU. No one knows why. Or how.

   All programs run in 4 nested containers on top of a hypervisor abstracting over the 5 major computational clouds. The last time a branch was predicted correctly, in any CPU anywhere, was 4 years ago.
