The nuclear power plant at nearby
Calvert Cliffs, Maryland may be getting a
new reactor. This would be good news for the NSA. Maybe the NSA should
fund their own reactor at the Calvert Cliffs. National security concerns might expedite the path through all the red tape.
So why now? Why did *SD fail? Once you get past the
fact that *BS is fragmented between a myriad of
incompatible kernels, there is the historical
record of failure and of failed operating
systems. *BSD experienced moderate success about
15 years ago in academic circles. Since then it
has been in steady decline. We all know *BSD keeps
losing market share but why? Is it the problematic
personalities of many of the key players? Or is
it larger than their troubled personalities?
The record is clear on one thing: no operating
system has ever come back from the grave.
Efforts to resuscitate *BSD are one step away from
spiritualists wishing to communicate with the dead.
As the situation grows more desperate for the
adherents of this doomed OS, the sorrow tkes hold.
An unremitting gloom hangs like a death shroud
over a once hopeful *BS community. The hope
is gone; a mournful nostalgia has settled in.
Now is the end time for *SD.
