Tech hype cycles
I had the whim to collect a list of all the major tech hype bubbles I’ve lived through, which turned out a lot trickier than I intended – perhaps because I do my best to ignore them. So I’m throwing the list down here and asking for corrections and additions:

- 1998-2001: Dotcom Bubble
- 1999-2006: Java
- 2004-2007: Web 2.0
- 2007-2010: The Cloud
- 2010-2015: Social media
- 2012-2015: Internet of Things
- 2013-2015: Big Data
- 2017-2021: Blockchain
- 2021-present: AI

Soar – Distro Agnostic Package Manager, HomeBrew (LinuxBrew) Done Right
Soar is a fast, modern package manager for Static Binaries, Portable Formats (AppImage\|AppBundle\|FlatImage\|Runimage) & More.

Think of it as homebrew but if homebrew worked on all distros (their bottles don’t work on musl) & provided casks for Linux (They only do for macOS)

What makes soar new or different? I encourage you read https://docs.pkgforge.dev/soar/readme & make up your own mind.
