  1. Diversity is good on Merits Of The Different Journaling Filesystems? · · Score: 2

    Back in the old days (around 1994) one had the choice between minix, xiafs, ext and ext2 as filesystems for ones linux box. ext2 stayed

    Today we face another choice and I sure that is darwinian way we'll select the right next generation filesystem.

    The big difference is however that the filesystems that existed back then didn't have any money (companies) behind them who could blur the choice and ext2 survived because of its technical superiority over the others.

    Something else that may lead to different filesystems suviving is that the Journaling filesystems mentioned all have their own disign and possible uses. On some systems it may be worth the performance penalty for data security on others it may not.

  2. Best of both systems on High Tech Wages - Salary or Hourly? · · Score: 1

    Most people at the company I work for get a salary, a 150% overtime compensation for nights and saturdays and 200% for sundays and public holidays based on worked hours.

    I think this system is reassuring for people who want the security of a salary system and gives your coworkers the advantages of an hourly based fee.
