Currently exist at the FreeBSD and OpenBSD source codes comments that says, 'Does this belong here?'.
If exist currently at the FreeBSD and OpenBSD source codes comments that says, 'Does this belong here?', I probably will add code in FreeBSD and OpenBSD source codes that inspire confidence.
FreeBSD (but 5.4?), maybe, OpenBSD, not likely. Made me think of this quote from a Forbes article (6/16/05):
Quote:
Lok Technologies , a San Jose, Calif.-based maker of networking gear, started out using Linux in its equipment but switched to OpenBSD four years ago after company founder Simon Lok, who holds a doctorate in computer science, took a close look at the Linux source code.
"You know what I found? Right in the kernel, in the heart of the operating system, I found a developer's comment that said, 'Does this belong here?'" Lok says. "What kind of confidence does that inspire? Right then I knew it was time to switch."
Here is the original comment to a slashdot article about a forbes article which is the copy and paste source for the first part of the OP which refers to FreeBSD 5.4-release: https://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid...9&cid=12843812
Note the date... 2005...
And the copy and paste source of the OpenBSD related "content" from the gentoo Linux forums (7th post down)... also from 2005.
So, it's at least 13 year old OpenBSD source (around 3.7-release)...
And the OP is almost entirely the product of copy and paste. They have not run those grep commands against OpenBSD or FreeBSD source code, at the time the post was made.
If exist currently at the FreeBSD and OpenBSD source codes comments that says, 'Does this belong here?', I probably will add code in FreeBSD and OpenBSD source codes that inspire confidence.
pompous ninja, my friend, if BSD doesn't inspire confidence in you what does? Windows?
I have 5 laptops running FreeBSD and 2 OpenBSD boxen. If I didn't have confidence or faith in them I wouldn't be doing so.
