I mean, I'm not being entirely serious but it was kind of the beginning of the end as shell accounts became increasingly pointless. Although maybe my mental timeline is a bit off, I remember a lottery scheduler getting implemented on the FreeBSD soda and those writeups seem to be from the late 90s not early 00s as I thought.
The t-shirts used to be a good way to run into strangers IRL who would inform you that they too partied with Nick Weaver.
- cubes 4y agoYes, I partied with Nick Weaver. The lottery scheduler was implemented in the late 90’s, but soda’s kernel ran with the lottery schedule well into the aughts. I agree that shell accounts weren’t as important by the aughts, but the culture was still going strong in the early aughts.
