Sorry to break this to you, but if the possibility of a problem is a no go for your servers, you will unfortunately have to pull the plug on them. All software has bugs, so does hardware.
- jmnicolas 6y agoCome on. Possibility of a problem is say Arch, rock stable is Debian / CentOS. There are certainly bugs in the later too, but I never experienced any in 15 years since I run a dozen Linux servers in production.
- leotaku 6y agoI understand, your comment simply rubbed me the wrong way, because it, in my mind, kind of ignores the main point of the parent, that nowadays the trade-off is less obvious than it used to be. I also genuinely want to apologize if my comment came of as patronising. I wanted to express my genuine opinion in a fun way and it seems like I have missed the mark pretty badly.

- teh_klev 6y agoWhat a supercilious and condescending response, and verging on snark. Sure all software is likely to have bugs, but some software is likely to have less bugs because there's more test coverage or the software is conservative about what features get added/updated. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.
- leotaku 6y agoUnderstood, I tried to be funny and failed. Will try to do better next time.
