A well-deserved endorsement from a Microsoft employee. (Assuming your HN profile is up-to-date.)
The kernel I start with is indeed derived from the same one that project started with.
- chadzawistowski 11y agoMy profile is up-to-date, although maybe I should add the caveat that my opinions are merely my own. :)
- loginusername 11y agoOf course. Though I'm sure you are not the only Microsoft employee who has used OpenBSD. At one point, after the Danger acquisition, Microsoft HR was advertising a position for a NetBSD developer. Are there any rules about using a non-Windows OS in the office? Even if it increases your capabilities and productivity?
- chadzawistowski 11y agoNo, there aren't hard rules against it. Practically, however, it's not very useful to use a non-Windows OS depending on which team/product you're working with. For instance, Macbooks are really common on some apps teams. In contrast, I work on the OS itself, so tools such as WinDBG and Hyper-V are essential to getting work done.
