Anyone have a link to an actual release? I thought this was slashdot..

Microsoft has a social network?

1st amendment should come before the 2nd..

Please ban GUNS before we ban THOUGHT!.

100% agreed. An extra file system per app is stupid.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day..

I completely left the amazon eco-system over this. Loss of convience sucks.. but no more spam for every thing i purchase...

Even I couldn't mess up this bad.. :)

Chicago paid them to put it in NY..

I left the city 15 years ago thank god... but im still stuck in Illinois.. which is a whole nother shit storm.

I started in the early 90s with freebsd...
Now I'll be going back...
Its like going back to an old friend. One who trusts and respects you..
Instead of forces things on you... for your own good...

I'm not against change... but sometimes you gotta stick with what works...

It seems everyone has a dealbreaker... for me its binary logs. and the unending "Embrace extend extinguish" model. It feels infectious...

Of course the debian devs voted for it... for them , it makes their job easier.... Screw the people who actually have to use it!!!!

I don't need my servers to boot in 3 secs They have years of uptime. .. Hell the Dell bios takes 40 secs alone... I dont care about how fast the devs can make their macbook boot debian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for thinking of me, first. Have a great day.

I used to work for a rather large telco-datacenter. They were using software built in 1970, to provision internet connectivity.

Telnet in (pick a username and try PASSWORD for the password) 75% of users were set up with default passwords. 50% of the active users were employees who left the company several years prior.

My team coded a new system from the ground up. Taking into account all the changes in the past 30 or so years. It was large roboust and elegant. Anyone who used the old system was completely blow away by the new system... Except the lead consultant from Accenturd. After 5 mins of our hour presentation, he cut us short and went on to be little us.... "anyone can code", " its just a website", ya know your company hired US to do that FOR you.

In the end accenturd decided that our 30 year old system would be just fine with a few modifiactions.. Sure the old system needs a team of 60, vs the team of 6 our NEW system required. But thats of little consequence.

$1 million - accenturd charge for simple modifications to a 30 year old system.

..VS..

Free ground up system built by internal employees, who worked with the old system on a daily basis.

The final descision was made by the person who originally spent the $1 million to accenturd. Seems he didnt want to admit he wasted $1 million for something we coulda gotten internally, for free.

There is no reason code should be running 30 years. I can assure you the original developer never intended 30 year life cycle on his code.

Old code still WORKED, that coder impresses me.
Old code was way obsolete, managment depresses me.
