Maybe, this person should understand what they are timing. The time command is a wonderful tool, but comparing the execution time of a 4 line C program with the start up cost of a VM and interpreter is inane. One needs to measure the progra

And you need something like wayland or mir to have such permission systems work. X11 is from a different age like bash ;)

The inverse of what you describe;) thoughtful personal customized with understanding both "me" and your client while respecting everyone's time. It is not magic it's time consuming work.

Standard JVM, slightly smaller, much faster. This is comparing to Java 1.2 before JIT/Hotspot and a decade of performance work. (Also I doubt anyone had 7.7 years of experience with Java in 2000, so that would be general) If we conside

I think you are rather confused, you judged Poettering guilty not me. You need to prove that he is, not I that he is not. Sure you not a prosecuting attorney but I would expect the same idea of innocent until proven guilty to apply in as we

This is exactly the terrible part of the community the OP talks about. Lennart while not being perfect, as no human is, tries to improve the lives of ordinary linux users. Comparing him to a misogynistic nazi like weev is unfair, and you sh

It is :) its just slow going :( semweb makes a lot of things simpler in the long run. But it puts the hardwork right in your face because it did the simple stuff for you. The hard stuff thends to make people stop early. I.e. Instead of figu

Not really, my project is 3 FTE for 8 years. Double it to 16 years and then multiple the number of developers by 100. Consider a large enterprise having 300 developers in multiple teams, I am not at all surprised that they can manage to wri

Don't try to figure out how the code does what does yet. Figure out what systems exists inside it: 1. What kind of modules? 2. Which servers/hardware? 3. Which databases/datastores? 4. What systems talk to what

The SPARQL/RDF world is moving to that "figure out the best storage solution itself". You just throw data into a system and the system figures out how best to store it. There is some research code for this in MonetDB and the

What is base load? Its the minimum load required in a network or is it those plants for whom it is uneconomical to go below a certain output. For the first no power plant is truly base load as all plants must shutdown sometimes. So you need

No we need to be able to shed unwanted power. Generation using renewable sources can be over provisioned, and still be economically feasible. Power usage fluctuations are thé key issue to manage. As wind is a very good base load provider. D

Asking for what they owe you is fine, even asking for more is acceptable. It is the threat of an unrelated negative that is blackmail. And that the quickest way to make people unhelpful and if you leave a trace of it, its going to ruin you

Don't ever do this. It is blackmail and will get you into a whole lot of trouble!

Of course your systemd startup can start a sh script at ease. I think systemd is going to make my life so much easier. Being more on the dev side of devops, but still needing to deploy correctly restarting aps depending on complex systems w

And actually being able to call redhat can be very useful once in while when you are having a really bad day.

A 160 GB disk is not a real comparison for enterprises. XFS really starts to perform better on disks 1Tb as well as 8 cores and above. EXT4 really starts to creak when moving to filesystems that are 16TB and above. Something that is going t

In some countries this completely legal, and if it wants to be an international standard it should have space for it. (I hope there would be standard filters for each legal area e.g. filter out all protected characteristics for US applicati

I would say openrdf sesame in the java world can use hand. It is one of the most widely used RDF and SPARQL apis on the java side. Very useful, when dealing with data from many sources without building a single datawarehouse.

9 feet for one lane road between 10,000 cabins in a line 209 feet apart leads to 431 acres of road area. i.e. your less dense population already destroys more road area than the denser city did. It is an unfortunate reality that dense citie

Virtuoso 7.1. and OWLIM 5.5 have similar loading speeds. In this case the decompression algorithm is often the bottleneck needing multiple files to be read in parallel to go faster. Oracle 12c Semantic Network and Yarcdata uRiKA can also go
