He starts with a nice history of SunOS and Solaris, goes into open source, then midway through (33:00) he goes into a brutally honest rant against Oracle. Even better is that Oracle was one of the sponsors of the conference.
- tgtweak 9y agoGreat talk by bcantrill. Don't put your hand in the lawn mower.
- blendo 9y agoI cut my unix teeth in the early '90s, on SunOS, and Cantrill really keeps the history relevant. But truly, his Oracle rant was one for the ages. And this from me where our system RDBMS is Oracle, sigh.
