But why did they create it?
Linux (UNIX) is an engineering OS. Windows is a slap dash Product chaotically rushed out and now buried under several layers of fad-strata that was meant to help moms store recipes on their kitchen PC. This is directly reflected in the development experience and culture.
- steve1977 2y agoThis is wrong on so many levels. Linux started out as a hobby project. In contrast, Windows NT started out as a well designed system made by seasoned professionals.
- shrimp_emoji 2y ago... Linux was a hobby project copying UNIX. And Windows NT's "good design and professional pedigree" must be subtle because Windows is a hot, disorganized mess that's hell to use or develop in.
- steve1977 2y agoWell Linux needs Docker containers to make deployment and dependency handling manageable, so I’m not too sure which one is the hotter mess.
