ECC is nice to have but absolutely not a show stopper if you don't have it. Plenty of articles and discussions online, example: http://jrs-s.net/2015/02/03/will-zfs-and-non-ecc-ram-kill-yo... Claim that

I have been using ZFS for over two years, on any desktop that I control, as both root file system for FreeBSD setups and backup file system in many configurations. In almost all cases I don't have EEC ram and I don't need it reall

I love arch, I was using it for over 10 years in a row, but it uses systemd now 'owned' by IBM.

Very simple reason, zfs, checksums and scrub. I would love to use open but I was already bitten by bit rot on ext4 on linux.

Maybe so. In my experience 'helping' in most cases sides with other time/nerves wasting exercises - like browsing twitter in other form. Role playing, not actual real thing. Getting better in what I do (whatever that is) firs

"Quit worrying about what everyone else is doing." - Good advice. "Focus on how you're helping people." - ? How come is 'helping people' ultimate goal? "Focus on what you are doing." looks as bet

Yup, since I switched to FreeBSD year or more ago it makes watching news like this much less stressful.

Red Hat already had too much grip on Linux, it will be interesting how this all plays when IBM steps in. In other shocking news Poeterring now works for IBM? Can we blame IBM for systemd in the future?

Word by word this is exactly my experience. Code I was forced to merge was working only on that day in a very limited set of tests. That's not 'working' in my definition. First next feature we needed to add and code would bre

We agree completely assuming that the other less skilled programmer doesn't twist any code criticism into personal attack and that project leader cares more about project quality than about feelings. When I review or comment the code I

Let me explain further then. It is all tied in, across the spectrum, along with linux code of conduct and sqlite topic today. In 'normal' company I can either respect the rules or walk away, there is usually little room for changi

What are the priorities? Is 'collaborating' supreme goal on its own? a) Quality b) Feelings c) Having as many as possible people 'collaborating' d) Getting job done Pick two. They are not excluding others but I wonder wh

Oh there is third option too. See my other post, I walked away while precious little programmer that has no skills but has feelings remained working at that company. > False choice; there is absolutely no reason whatsoever that one would

Yeah, like mirko said, being pressured by project leader to merge absolute crap (I was in charge of merging), "because it works and we don't want to suppress less skilled colleagues". "Try to explain nicely how to do it

Yes, I am aware of that but are LTS kernels in any for different from the mainline kernel? Can LTS kernel contain code that is not approved and tested in mainline first? They are 'older' but they contain same feature set that is a

Being politically correct vs getting the job done, I'll always choose getting the job done. There is plenty or role playing projects where your feeling matter more than your skills. In last couple of jobs I am always asking about compa

Is stable different from latest? I am not sure how much independent decision space he has, otherwise we would have d-bus in stable long time ago. Maybe I don't know the process well enough but I would be surprised that Greg can merge s

It is very disturbing for me to see Greg KH being at the top and deciding what goes into Linux. There is history of agenda that doesn't align best with kernel user interests. Can't forget d-bus events very related to this person.

Is 'Wayland only' result of valid reasoning? Is Wayland successfully replacing X11 on Linux? I am not using Linux for some time now so I am not sure.

Apart from usual 'open source' and 'who controls the software' dogma, I find his endless gnawing about libreboot and Intel ME very related to general closed-box-that-we-trust problems. Trouble is now I think he wasn&#x27
