I've seen GADTs as a feature that Haskell devs complained about, similar to Template Haskell. I know the issues with TH, but what's the limitation of GADTs as implemented in Haskell, and are there languages with less problematic i

You're right. I've trusted the content of Jordan Hubbard's presentation, seeing how he was inside OS X for a long time and is a FreeBSD expert too, and didn't question the validity.

From what I understand, HardenedBSD basically ported GRsecurity features and added stuff like default-PIE compilation and a couple userspace tools.

I see, that's unfortunate. TBH, I wasn't entirely sure what to make of the comments in the ASLR Phabricator ticket, and it looked like they gave up after failing to address the VM comments. Do you know if there are there plans to

Previously service administration was different from linux distro to linux distro. This is of course no problem for FreeBSD, since there wasn't such a difference to begin with. One feature that FreeBSD may be missing is the dynamic beh

The organization of these status reports is outstanding and so structured, like the rest of FreeBSD's documentation and communication. I wish more of the HardenedBSD features would land in FreeBSD trunk. Other than that, I'm reall
