If you don't learn it from school, and don't learn it from slashdot, you don't know about it?!?!
No wonder all software sucks.

No, it is not. Granted, GNU doesn't like man pages any more, but in general, reading documentation is the RIGHT THING TO DO.
Uh, it's only been around since the mid-90s if not earlier.
Unconnected archiving is a universally recognized good practice. Why in hell don't the new guys understand this?
Every generation, someone gets to learn this lesson all over again.
ZFS raid does that.
Bullshit. I was running up through 10.4 or 10.5 on a PowerMac G4 450mhz. It was more responsive (I didn't say faster) and usable than the dual 1.4Ghz Pentium 3 I had.
Not if your OS is tied intimately to your filesystem. Linux might not, because a large number of things are abstracted out, but FreeBSD depends on its file system, Solaris took a very long time/effort before it could boot off ZFS. Forget about moving Windows off NTFS. Apple actually did some work on putting it onto ZFS, maybe they will continue.
It's the beta, not-for-sale-yet products that Cisco got their hands on that is the problem.
You are a fucking idiot. It incubates for anywhere up to 7-10 years before symptoms appear. By the time symptoms appear, you're already fucked.
Testing 40,000 cows is a drop in the bucket. UK tests *EVERY SINGLE COW*.
The symptoms manifests in cows after about 7 years, so under Bush, they changed the requirement that meat cows be slaughtered before 3, so no one can even spot a cow that is carrying it.
Wow. A factual followup. Wish I had mod points.
What kind of nonsense are you spouting? Every processor out there with the exception of that one open sourced one, *IS* proprietary! *YOU* go try and make an x86 and see if Intel sues the pants off you.
You also don't understand what scalability and all the other big words mean. You don't even know that your Intel processor is now effectively a RISC core with a CISC layer of microcode on top.
And who the hell cares if you can run 8bit or 16 mode shit? Those were all design inefficiencies and now you are fucking bragging about it? What an idiot.
ssd + ram really helps make it a better/faster machine, if you haven't already done that.
So when Walmart does it, it's bad, but when Amazon does it, because it's online, it's good?
I would wait for the next version...
