   Thanks for the link! I'm in the same boat.

   Yeah I don't equate SIMD instructions to being ASIC's.

    The Mill team seem to have a strong aim for commercial success. Talks and documentation are typically only released after they have secured their patents. I'm also skeptical as to if they will make a viable product at the end of the da

    I prefer 16:10 on a 15-inch screen but can live with 16:9. However on anything smaller I find a 16:9 ratio too wide. I'm biased in that I spend most of my work time in a shell or text editor where there is a lot of value in vertical sp

    I'm just happy to see new devices being made with high resolution 3:2 screens.

    A nitpick regarding the comment on the 8XXX series which is targeted pretty much only for 8 socket systems (or 4 in non-fully populated configs). > This pricing seems crazy, but it is worth pointing out a couple of things. The companies

    It's very well commented and often flows like prose. Many files start with large block comments outlining intent, design, and implementation. Further code is then annotated as appropriate. The libumem stuff is a good example. https:&#

    Whether you use it or not the Illumos code base[1] is one of the most well written I've seen in this respect. [1] https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate

    The title/ synopsis is somewhat misleading. While it may have been a HP problem there's no mention of the specific fault. Indeed it's just a script to download and install the latest rtlwifi drivers. Also given that apt is me

    The re-link is recorded so if you needed can reproduce the same kernel. But as dimman has said you will have symbols.

    I took issue with the previous comment as the wording "get away with" implies the user base has the release and deprecation cycles forced upon them. Whereas it is quite welcomed by the user community. OpenBSD has never targeted

    Recall these were never meant to live very long in the first place. With the internal restructuring completed and the TCP/IP protocols integrated with the prototype IPC facilities, several simple applications were created to

    > They removed telnetd a bit later, 2005~ish? I can't find commits Neither can I but the man page disappears between 3.7 and 3.8 so you're correct about it being somewhere in 2005.

    So rcp et al are used on some HPC systems but not for performance. I've seen it used for private management networks that talk to micro-controllers. Even in that instance it's an ugliness that needs to die.

    No they can "get away with it" due to: - Having a regular and well tested release model. - Having a clear policy of supporting only the current and previous release. - Being a BSD style OS where the kernel, libc, and base programs
