fact humour linus linux torvalds

  • Linus Torvalds facts Linus Torvalds facts are a series of humorous sayings regarding Linus Torvalds. Some of them include: Linus Torvalds edited this page. Linus Torvalds can program without a keyboard Since 1969, the year Linus Torvalds was born, software quality has increased 19.000 percent. The commonest definition of the word programmer is Linus Torvalds Linus Torvalds didn't learn from the University of Helsinki the University of Helsinki learned from Linus Torvalds. Linus Torvalds finished the Linux Kernel the day before he started on it. Linus Torvalds once developed a programming language so good that it makes python look like punch cards. Linus Torvalds doesn't need to boot. Linus Torvalds first written program had artificial intelligence. Linus Torvalds doesn't receive error messages. There is no theory of probability, just a list of events that Linus Torvalds allows to occur. Linus Torvalds doesn't use a monitor. He can read the video signals from a VGA cable with his finger. Linus Torvalds can write to ntfs. Linus Torvalds can install gentoo in under a day. When Linus Torvalds writes new software, he just makes punch cards with his teeth and feeds them into a reader. Linus Torvalds source codes compile themselves. When Linus Torvalds learned to program, the computer printed HELLO, WORLD by itself. Linus was considered as being old and stable at 24, but new and bleeding edge at 26 Linus surfs the web using nothing but netcat Linus Torvalds can play 3D games in his head by interpreting the source code in real-time. Being touched by Linus can cure carpal tunnel syndrome. He does not cure RMS because he thinks it's funny to listen to RMS dictating code for the HURD. Linus Torvalds only wears glasses to make him seem more human. Linus Torvalds can fluently converse with setup wizard. They play basketball on Sundays. Linus Torvalds is the only known entity capable of uploading pure pleasure. Linus Torvalds can read your computer registry from any given point in the world, through any material. Linus Torvalds takes one look at your desktop and knows which porn sites you visited. In the last ten years.

bash interview linux programming ramey shell unix

  • Interviews The A-Z of Programming Languages: BASH/Bourne-Again ShellWhen the Bourne Shell found its identity
  • in this article we chat to Chet Ramey about his experience maintaining Bash.
  • In BASH's case, the problem to be solved was a free software version of the Posix standard shell to be part of the GNU system.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • the original Bourne Shell was very influential, the various System V shell releases preserved that heritage, and the Posix committee used those versions as the basis for the standard they developed. Certainly the basic language syntax and built-in commands are direct descendants of the Bourne Shell's. Bash's additional features and functionality build on what the Bourne shell provided. As for source code and internal implementation, there's no relationship at all
  • Bash will continue to evolve as both an interactive environment and a programming language. I'd like to add more features that allow interested users to extend the shell in novel ways. The programmable completion system is an example of that kind of extension.
  • Do you have any advice for up-and-coming programmers? Find an area that interests you and get involved with an existing community. There are free software projects in just about any area of programming. The nuts-and-bolts -- which language you use, what programming environment you use, where you do your work -- are not as important as the passion and interest you bring to the work itself.

shared by Marco Castellani on 15 May 08 - Cached
  • Fedora 9 will include KDE 4.0.3 by default, so this is a look at the progress of one of the major free desktop environments. KDE 4.0 was released January 11, 2008 after a couple of years of discussions and hype. The initial release was followed by a succession of minor releases that fixed many of the glaring bugs. The project that was initiated on October 14, 1996, so its developers have nearly a decade of experience now. While a lot of things have changed, there is still a familiar feel from its initial days. So what has changed?
  • The new Kickoff menu is a bit unusual and takes time to get used to.
  • The KDE project has taken a big risk, hoping to jump-start innovation. I hope they get it right. Along with the interesting acquisition of Trolltech by Nokia, the future is exciting and uncertain… and that’s just the way I like it.

gnome guadec linux segnalerumore

shared by Marco Castellani on 29 Jul 08 - Cached
  • Gnome 3.0, the next major release of the Unix and Linux desktop, was one of the conference's main topics. There have been intense discussions whether Gnome is stagnating in recent weeks – the twice yearly updates to the current 2.x series deliver steady, but rarely spectacular, new features and improvements.
  • Gnome co-founder Frederico Mena-Quintero concentrated on the traditional document-centred desktop. Whilst users have no problems with emails, chat or music, they often have trouble finding their documents. Rather than a folder view, he espouses a journal, which shows documents sorted chronologically. According to Mena-Quintero, the idea is nothing new, but with a sensible GUI and in tandem with functions such as tags, it could offer significant improvements for users.

  • A few months ago Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Ubuntu Linux, called upon open source developers to surpass Apple and their wonderful MacOS-X based user experience. Well, gOS release 3 could be close to doing just that. They have taken the best of Mac OS-X and Linux to a level that the user experience of using it is, well, exceptional!

kernel linux performance

shared by anonymous on 26 Aug 09 - No Cached
  • Preemption The server kernel has kernel preemption turned off (CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y), while the desktop kernel has it enabled (CONFIG_PREEMPT_BKL=y, CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y). Preemption works along with scheduling to fine-tune performance, efficiency and responsiveness. In non-preemptive kernels, kernel code runs until completion; the scheduler can't touch it until it's finished. But the Linux kernel allows tasks to be interrupted at nearly any point (but not when it is unsafe, which is a whole huge fascinating topic all by itself), so that tasks of lesser-priority can jump to the head of the line. This is appropriate for desktop systems because users typically have several things going at once: writing documents, playing music, Web surfing, downloading and so on. Users don't care how responsive background applications are; they care only about the ones they're actively using. So if loading a Web page takes a little longer while the user is writing an e-mail, it's an acceptable trade-off. Overall efficiency and performance are actually reduced but not in a way that annoys the user. On servers you want to minimize any and all performance hits, so turning off preemption is usually the best practice.
