@untseac Yeah Greg is really easy to listen too and never seems to get bogged down into the yawn inducing stuff!

yeah.. I am interested in robotics developed on linux drivers... Can anyone tell me if they worked on it ...

@TheDeadlyPythonTube what you say would be true, if Linux Kernel would be Microkernel, or even Hybrid kernel. Since you can put drivers/file system stuff, inside the kernel, thigs usually become even more stable/fast. Btw, have you ever compiled your own Linux kernel? I gues no, because you would've known that you can make extremely lightweight kernel, by not compiling stuff you don't use.

This guy has no idea what he's talking about. The purpose of the kernel is just to talk to the hardware and manage all the resources. And this goal should be archived by a small and fast kernel. Saying 'Bring your code into the kernel' is a dumb thing to say. It's just going to bloat the kernel and make it slow.

@gnulinux540 on linux right now ^^

@Gyula9999 Nice catch. That's just like Greg.

@joanindo Canonical submits almost nothing. They don't do shit for the kernel.

@martinmartiini He doesn't mean snapping chips in two. Say person X submits a patch, dealing with graphics cards. That patch makes the output of the graphics cards behave erratically - they're not being controlled properly by the kernel. Person X is said to have "broken" the graphics card - with that kernel, it no longer functions as it should.

16:37 "we wanna make sure we never brake a machine that was working previously" -- Does this mean linux ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY breaks computers (or he talks about breaking linux system) ??? |
