Windows is back on the Microsoft menu
I can't remember the last time Microsoft kicked off a Build keynote with Windows front and center, but that's exactly what CEO Satya Nadella did this week. Nadella didn't address the issues Microsoft is trying to fix in Windows 11 but chose to woo the audience with Microsoft's slick Surface RTX Spark Dev Kit instead, calling it a "dream machine." Nadella unveiled the new Surface hardware just days after Nvidia officially returned to Windows on Arm with its new RTX Spark chips.
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...

Microsoft to unveil new AI models and Windows improvements at Build
Microsoft is heading to San Francisco this week in a bid to win back developers at its Build conference. I've been attending Build since the days when Microsoft called it the Professional Developers Conference, and I can't remember a more pivotal moment. As Microsoft continues to reshuffle its entire business around AI, it's moving Build into a smaller, more intimate venue.
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.
