You beat me to this sentiment. That was my thought exactly, 200K/mo is peanuts for a full time development team. And I am only talking salaries. Not perks, benefits, etc. Which is why it is disheartening to me to hear anyone gasp at th

Right this is exactly what the Letsencrypt folks are trying to solve. Thank you for your work Josh! SSL has been a pain in the ass for decades! Generating certs, deploying them, maintaining them. This is why we are not at 100% SSL on the we

You think that's a lot? I'm not trying to single you out and please don't take this as a personal attack. But it's disturbing to me especially in light of the dyn attack and others people STILL are not getting how badly

So... this is... apples automater?

So use Jails, ZFS and rctl. Problem solved.

How he reconciled (b) with his generational ignorance of SCM would be interesting to hear from him. (a) better late than never!

Seconded on the BSD license being the way forward.

Good at assessing reality?? The same Linus that fundementally did not believe in source code management for what 20? Years because it made developers "soft"!?

Twisted ROCKED. I remember when it came out everyone I knew thought it was pretty kick ass, at least those who developed in Python. Did something happen that it's now fallen out of favor?
460.
by X86BSD 10y ago
I wouldn't go so far as to say it's a language FOR beginners. But it is easier to understand some concepts in python than staring at god awful C or Perl or most other languages as a totally new person to programming .

Also there is no dtrace on Linux.

Well Postbox lists a link to Enigmail 1.2.3. So it's a little outdated. Which makes me wonder when or IF the enigmail folks will make 2.0 available for postbox.

"I can neither confirm nor deny this will work." :) Possible and does are a little different :)
464.
by X86BSD 10y ago
Will this be supported in Postbox 5? I know enigmail 1.2 is but I won't pull the trigger on Postbox 5 yet until I can confirm this add on will work with it.

If so, I would be very interested to see what, if anything at all, moving from JVM to BEAM in Erlang/Elixir/Phoenix would do for them. In a never going to happen but interesting to see on this scale kind of way.

I'll put $1 on politics. I mean look, you have an OS that bgregg has had to pour how much effort into to get the observability that FreeBSD already had? And that's just the observability part. Then you have the FreeBSD network st

The exact same vague use cases for BSD can be listed as well. But it's all guesses. No one knows for sure who is using what in pure numbers.

More packets are pushed through BSD devices than Linux devices combined ala Netflix CDN. PS4s run heavily modified bsd. OS X has much BSD code. iOS as well. Juniper routers. TVs. We can continue to do this all day. The point is no one has a

You are simply dead wrong here. And Bryan Cantrill has said so publically. Sun NEVER intended for Linux not to adopt it. They wanted it to be ubiquitous across all open source platforms. IMO they should have two claused FreeBSD licensed it
470.
by X86BSD 10y ago
The incompatible license is the GPL. I think that's where your problem lies. IllumOS, FreeBSD had no problem at all adopting them.

by X86BSD 10y ago
I'm not sure where you get your numbers from but I would disagree. I'll bet there is more BSD running embedded than Linux. And either of us will be hard put to actually show solid numbers. Everyone can point to their favorite vend

That's a very good suggestion. But the reality is that will never, ever happen. Linus and the Linux community as a whole exist in an echo chamber. They never resort to looking outside their little bubble world to see how others solved

It's probably more true that you realize. Salt mines across many countries are being used to store all sorts of knowledge. For instance here in Kansas is a huge salt mine that Hollywood uses to store original prints of many many classi

The thing is you DONT own your property. Think you do? Don't pay propert tax and see what happens. Think you do? Do you have an alodial title for your property? No? You are a serf who rents the privilege of a roof over your head from t

I have stopped using any of my cards that don't work with Apple Pay. Apple Pay solves the problem of a static card number being stored god knows where for how long in who knows what flat file or databases. One time card numbers ftw.

I use pgp daily with my email. I value it. It's good software. But let's be honest, SSL and pgp are the best we can do to secure comms from http to smtp today? Key/cert management is an epic fail from a usability pov. Is it d

"Containers cannot and will not provide effective security." Will you PLEASE stop this FUD. What you mean to say is LINUX containers cannot and will not provide effective security. And the reason for that is they were never design

And yet Apple makes the majority of mobile phone profits for the entire sector. Weird.

I'll also add a plug for tredly.com here. "Containers done right" and pretty much all of Joyents container work.

No the correct solution is to debug the issue not just reboot/restart/reinit the damn thing. This mentality is WHY Linux/docker/containers/Linux worlds NIH syndrome, is such a tire fire.
