I think the phrase has probably been mutated many times by various groups.

Its called POLA in the FreeBSD world. Principle of least astonishment. So this exists outside solaris too. :)

Ill reiterate on yet another thread that the reason people are worse off, is the purchasing power of the worthless fiat dollar. Take a quarter from pre-1965 when we still made constitutionally sound money made with gold or silver. The silve

ZFS send/recv to an offsite ZFS box is a backup. Replacing tape systems. It's incremental. Its compressed. It's faster.

Power 9? Last I looked no one was even selling power 8 on the retail scale. Tyan had some finished? Systems kind of sort of available? And that was it. I thought IBM had stated they wanted to challenge and take Intel on in the data center a

Actually it does replace backups with replication and/or cloning.

I think what bothers me most is this person owns a computer related business. He is actively endangering people's data out of willful ignorance. It's highly unethical.

Consumer hardware is notriously busted. Even most of the enterprise hardware isn't flawless. Firmware bugs etc. "Your hardware is actively trying to kill your data and ZFS job is to prevent it." To paraphrase Allan Jude.

Erlang. BSD license. What's not to love? Great work! Can't wait for its release!

Sun's event ports are so similar to kqueue cantrill has said they should have just adopted kqueue. And there are not different views on zones and jails. They are the same thing. Sun just took the idea of jails and flushed them out furt

I think your argument lies more in the fact that linux is non standard to Unix. They have gone their own way and made it difficult to transfer knowledge. Ask anyone who has ported a Linux application to any other Unix. It's at best a P

Filesystems are HARD, see the plethora of FS's on Linux that are dead, dying, or horribly engineered. This seems like such a monumental waste of resources, time, and energy to chase ZFS, which itself is not a stationary target. ZFS is

It's also had more baking time on FreeBSD.

Yeah I was like uhhhh what? Illumos and illumos based OS'es and FreeBSD are the only games in town where ZFS is a first class citizen. Ill chalk it up to extreme bias.

I'm encouraged to hear your opinion on it. A friend of mine who turned me on to elixir is a fan of GraphQL as well. So you have pushed me to spend the day reading up on it and experimenting with it. Thank you.

This warmed my tiny little black heart. I am glad to see the results were positive!

Which the JOE folks make quite clear. Why would anyone assume this was not for complete novices new to programming in general? It seems odd to me. I find it a very good start for someone new to programming with zero experience and wishing t

But again he or she above you doesn't really want to enforce that. Enforcement of the GPL is a big problem. Who has the time and energy and money to sit around looking for violators? And then if you do find them you have to lawyer up a

Monero the crypto currency does this. I've seen them fund every thing from Ph.D. Research and paper writing, to application development and bug fixing. It seems to work well for those who really believe in and use a project. I'm s

Why would others care about his/her code being trashed publicly? Because we are all human beings. We all have feelings. Some of us are tougher than others emotionally but even those of us who don't give AF what others think feel s

That is why I have embraced it. I never liked the features lacking from bitcoin. And when the anonymous coins like monero and zero coin came out even then it took me a while to research and embrace one. Monero was what I settled on. I like

Cigarettes have NO medicinal value. Why are they not schedule one right up their with marijuana which research has indicated has many many medicinal uses?

I personally prefer Fossil. It's a really nice little SCM with all sorts of neat features like built in wiki and great documentation.

So I have google fiber. And as you note this relies on your connection. But that's only half the issue. Since getting google fiber I've realized since my pipe is no longer the issue that the service I'm connecting to is the i

I seem to recall a company called palm say almost the same thing about phones and a certain fruit company. Be careful what you believe in.

Interesting. I'd like to know what the "enterprise" has moved on to from ZFS.

This is what blows my mind. If someone can strip you of a "right", then it's not a right it's a privilege. We have RIGHTS in this country not privileges.
