- gumby 3y agoFortunately SLIB and SLEB are still in our future. I hope they don't need to resort to SLYB, much less SLOEB and the like.
- codetrotter 3y ago> SLOEB Excuse me, I think you mean “SLÖB”!
- gumby 3y agoIsn't the kernel USASCII-only (POSIX charset)?
- Iwan-Zotow 3y agoOSLOEB
- viraptor 3y agoYou can't use that one in VMs though. Only on bare metal.

- sedatk 3y agoHuh, thanks to the article, I learned that SLOB's maintainer was Mercurial's creator, Olivia Mackall. I'm in awe of these people who are involved in more than one gigantic project in their lifetime.
- glandium 3y agoMercurial was created for the same reason git was created, around the same time. So yeah, Olivia Mackall was a kernel hacker at the time.
- catiopatio 3y agoFormerly Matt Mackall, if anyone, like me, was confused by the name change.
- GuB-42 3y agoMaybe you should check Fabrice Bellard then. https://bellard.org/ https://bellard.org/ His best known works include FFMPEG and QEMU, there are many others.
