Your RAM is an illusion. The moon needs a new timezone. Compilers might start vibe...compiling. Welcome to 2026.

In this video, I break down my biggest Computer Science predictions for the year!

What do you think, do you agree? Disagree? Let me know in the comments!

Timestamps: 00:00 Treating RAM like a...Network? 03:55 Lunar Timezones 07:10 Rust vs C++ vs CHERI? 10:58 Slopsquatting 13:40 Non-deterministic ML Compilers?

2026 Predictions (simplified):

65% - At least one major cloud provider will release compute offerings with a "tiered" or "burstable" memory class where you explicitly pay less for memory backed by CXL

80% - A published implementation strategy for official Coordinated Lunar Time as an operational standard

40% - A mass produced consumer device ships with a CHERI-enabled processor

70% - A major developer package repository has to temporarily halt registrations for +24hrs

65% - LLVM MLGO lists 3+ ML-guided heuristics

I don't think anyone will be shipping CHERI this year. However I suspect a lot of ideas from it will make it's way into Arm and RISCV architecture enhancements.
