Some people do it because they're chasing the newest shiney.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Nailed it!
I can understand that for hobbyists but for companies?

If you're a startup, buzzword compliance is more important than a mature and stable tech stack. 
... less snarkily, .net core runs on Linux which can matter of ideological reasons; and if you don't need anything not in it going .netcore now for a new web project means that if *nix hosting becomes a requirement in the future you don't have to do any major re-architecting then.

However, with Windows 7 approaching its end of extended support in less than three years, Microsoft is once again cautioning enterprise customers and other users to upgrade to Windows 10. And by "modern technology" they mean...?
|
|
|
|

Similarly, time is needlessly wasted on combating malware attacks that could have been avoided by upgrading to Windows 10.
I consider Windows 10 auto update to be malware. And certainly in my limited experience, it has caused more time wasting than any other malware I've ever encountered. Oh wait, I actually have never encountered malware except for what Microsoft produces.

In other words, Windows 7 won't be part of Skynet.

Obviously they're referring to the new and improved data-mining included in Windows 10  Improving silly things like user experience is in the past. Modern technology is all about that big data.

With the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), you can now run Linux binaries natively on Windows 10. With WSL, you can now run native Bash on Ubuntu on Windows. And then install a VM of Win10 in it, and start over again
See how deep the rabbit hole goes!

The tools we use to study the brain are tested on a system we actually understand. "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents."

I imagine that if I make a comment about spiritual science or the brain "simply" being the physical organ for the soul to express itself, and the so forth, I will be the laughing stock of the community.

It's like a computer that skipped over programming languages, object orientation, and all the stuff that we do with computers, and went straight to AI.
It had quite a while to get good at it.
