- LINUX is obsolete (groups.google.com)
I was in the U.S. for a couple of weeks, so I haven’t commented much on LINUX (not that I would have said much had I been around), but for what it is worth, I have a couple of comments now.
- Source Lake (wta.org)
If you want to see the headwaters of the mighty Snoqualmie River, head for the source. Source Lake, that is. It’s a modest pond, but the setting is remarkable. Craggy peaks ring this pool, found along the way to one of the state’s most popular alpine lake – Snow Lake.
- Tanenbaum–Torvalds debate (Wikipedia)
The Tanenbaum–Torvalds debate was a written debate over the Internet between Andrew S. Tanenbaum and Linus Torvalds, regarding the Linux kernel and kernel architecture in general. Tanenbaum, the creator of Minix, began the debate in 1992 on the Usenet discussion group comp.os.minix, arguing that microkernels are superior to monolithic kernels and therefore Linux was, even in 1992, obsolete. The debate has sometimes been considered a flame war.
