- srtjstjsj 6y agoHuh? GNU is hardly mentioned because Hurd was never finished. "Linux" is the name for (obviously) all the Linux based systems if you don't have a specific distro mind. No one talks about an "Emacs" system or a "Firefox system" either. They talk about the relevant products where the label is disambiguating, like GNU Emacs.
- jfax 6y agoThe article is talking about GNU coreutils. If this article was talking about how Docker behaves, I'd hope the article would refer to it as "Docker" rather than "Linux".
