You got to be willing to read other people's code, then write your own, then have other people review your code. You've got to want to be in this incredible feedback loop where you get the world-class people to tell you what you're doing wrong.
Quite a clear endorsement of the open source model. And if the source he dived for had had an explicit open source license, he not only would have had every right to take them, but he could have insisted on having it:-)
There is something to this. Some years ago I realised that I'd be a lot more interested in playing chess with a machine if I knew that it felt hunger like we do. i.e., it needed to eat.
I've never been interested in playing chess against computers; perhaps because I've written software for most of my life. On the other hand, I still get some fun out of teasing and observing AI in first person shooters...
Quasi-religious ideas are easily inspired by the rapid pace of technological change - call it convergence, singularity, whatever.
Like countless others, I myself got carried away with visions of a globally connected network about 23 years ago, when I was young and silly - but long before that, there were Ted Nelson, Vannevar B***, and no doubt dozens of pre-electricity Singularity prophets.
Superficial parallels between unlimited technological connectedness and spiritual concepts such as Enlightenment are not hard to find. In the meantime, we have Twitter.
But RAID is a perfectly acceptable backup when it is a backup - as in a second system.
The first data protection should be to run ZFS with redundancy - that is already much safer than "RAID" (for reasons easily discoverable by brief web reading).
Ya know, the best way to 'manage' natural resources is to leave them the fuck alone. Better yet, stop calling them 'resources' and start calling them our heritage or a term that reflects the irreplaceability and sacredness of everything we are currently destroying as fast as we can.
If this satellite helps us leave the Amazon and every other piece of threatened Nature alone, well great, but we already know who's destroying it (our lifestyle is funding it) and where (everywhere), why (greed), and how (corruption, lack of enforcement). In a nutshell the "First World", as usual, is the enabler.
And read an actual fucking newspaper, dumbass. (And yes, that means a non-USA, non-filtered news source. Ironic to be dissing Iran when you dipshits live in a fantasy world all your own.)
...know something about the limitations of the Apollo computer (for example, 2048 words of RAM). "Overloaded" makes a lot of sense in that context, actually.

NILFS2 (recently integrated into Linux mainline) also supports snapshots.
Who was talking about single bit errors?
SMART is irrelevant here. You need to study ZFS a lot more.

that formatting sucked.

If by "often", you mean "never".

Why are we commemorating the birth of one of the biggest, most expensive, and egregious organised crimes against civilisation, again?
Let's have the party when Microsoft is finally shut down and Gates is in jail where he belongs.
Do those machines posses will, lust or greed ?

it better not be running Windows
Well, that's up to you, isn't it?

Your comment goes against the very essence of civilization.
Not everyone was fooled. Apenwarr wrote about it, for one.
This is still Microsoft, folks. It's always a trap.

This can be mirrored to a second system.
Why, because they (famously) have nuclear weapons and nobody else in the region does?
You're right, after all they might have an accident...
Windows is the real problem.

It sounds like you want your school to make you into the next .NET code monkey off the conveyor belt.
If that's what you want, why are you studying Computer Science at all? It is not about giving you expertise in specific tools.
Give you reliable connectionless (UDP) or connected (TCP) options respectively.
And read an actual fucking newspaper, dumbass. (And yes, that means a non-USA, non-filtered news source. Ironic to be dissing Iran when you dipshits live in a fantasy world all your own.)
you don't remember.
And this is the country that won't lift a finger to prosecute those companies complicit in warrantless wiretapping of its own citizens.
Not to mention the broad range of human rights abuses by the USA.
The answer is for Michael Jackson not to die again.

Do some reading and join them.
