Microsoft Build: Surface RTX Spark Dev Box, Coreutils for Windows, air-gapped GitHub and more
Microsoft’s Build event is under way in San Francisco, USA, with the expected focus on agentic AI but also a few surprises, such as Unix-style Coreutils for Windows. CEO Satya Nadella presented Project Solara, based on future devices which "are not meant to run traditional apps. They are designed for agents," according to applied science group leader Steven Bathiche; it is as much aspiration than specific plans and whether it is dream or nightmare is open to question.
Coreutils for Windows
UNIX-style core utilities for Windows. The same commands and pipelines you use on Linux, macOS, and WSL - natively. A Microsoft-maintained build of uutils/coreutils, findutils, and a GNU-compatible grep packaged as a single multi-call binary for Windows.
Grep this: Microsoft grafts (most) Linux commands onto Windows
Steve Ballmer’s darkest fear has come to pass: Linux has worked itself into the deepest innards of Microsoft Windows itself. At the company’s annual Build developer conference this week, Microsoft released coreutils, a Rust-built multi-call binary file for Windows that serves over 75 Unix commands directly in the Windows CMD and PowerShell command lines – including favorites such as cat, ls, grep, and head. They join Linux favorites curl and sudo which were earlier added to the Microsoft...
Show HN: Nucleus – A security-hardened, Nix-native container runtime
Extremely lightweight, security-hardened, declarative container runtime for agents and production services Nucleus is a minimalist container runtime for Linux. It provides isolated execution environments using Linux kernel primitives without the overhead of traditional container runtimes. For production services, it is designed around a fully declarative model: Nix builds the root filesystem, the NixOS module declares the service, and Nucleus mounts a pinned, reproducible closure at runtime.
