Surprised this new “sudo” is just a normal application and uses UAC. Seems pretty pointless to me 🤔 devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/...

The interesting bit is that it will be shipped as part of windows, out of the box. At least that's the impression I got from the dev in the hacker news thread. The same thread also noted that the UAC prompt currently identifies the triggering application as "Microsoft", which is true but misleading.
