Don't forget that DOS started out as a Unix flavor and was intended solely for gaming and people writing 'Hobby software' working out of their garage to build their loved and hated mega-empires. Linux may have started as a Hobby OS, but so did Windows.
Around the time the World Wide Web became popular Windows struggled to call itself 'The Backbone of the Internet' about 30-ish years after the Internet was first created by DARPA. It wasn't until '95 that Windows received a native TCP protocol. Prior to that you had to have Windows 3.11 for workgroups and use a thing called 'trumpet' for your TCP IP.
A Linux license is free, A Windows license is not. You may not like it, but Windows time as a Server OS is going to be chosen by the accountants and shareholders. Sysadmins have already been sold. And that's well before anyone begins to mention 'infrastructure as code'.
As for Windows I would never *ever* consider Windows a viable server platform as it's a complete management and security nightmare compared to what a LAMP Linux server can do out of the box. I only keep windows for gaming, and Linux for the hardcore server stuff.
Or rather lets not have scientists challenging the current chicken-little population with real science that points out hypothesis contrary to current popular income models.
You can call it what you will but there is one truth; So long as there is money to be made climate change will exist.
Why does everyone let the other Constitutional rights get shat upon, but act like that one damned thing is inviolate?
Why aren't all those people loudly braying about their 2nd amendment defending the other Constitutional rights?
Because the 2nd amendment is what will enable us to get those others back. There is a LOT of civil process still available before the braying you hear is gunfire.
I for one do not look forward to that. But the 2nd amendment remains as a legal means to enforce the will of the people as a *last resort*
Peering billions of years into the visual past is more accurate. It's a huge assumption that we will " finally allow us to truly see the first stars, galaxies and quasars in the Universe".

My Anger comes from your inability to accept that nto every body is the same as yours. I am happy that worked for you, but not everyone is the same and this research is critical to that end.
WHY must everyone assume we all have the same effing *everything*.
I am done with this conversation, you are clearly not going to accept anything TFA has to offer.
Don't think of it as a personal attack, as much as my opinion of the authors attitude towards new information, and the negative impact it can have on the people outside himself that really need this information.
What ticks me off is people who refuse to take personal control for what they stuff in their mouths and try to blame *something* ANYTHING other than their choices of what they chew on, then complain bitterly about being overweight....
I wasn't the one that dived to a personal attack. This qualifies.
It's far more than 1% and your ignorance on the subject is staggering.
Why are there so many people that are completely unable to accept a changing world with a changing understanding of how it works?
If we lived in the time before someone suggested the world was not flat you would have been leading the lynch mob to destroy any such heresy before it caught on.
Thank you for telling the scientific community that their studies are a waste of time with no applicable benefits whatsoever. The real problem is *just* self control.
see a doctor and obtain their advice on how to proceed because you are weird and there likely is some medical issue you need to deal with
And that is where this research is a godsend. Because 'eating less and exercising more is *clearly* no longer working for a growing demographic of people that *have been* doing what you so flippantly declare as the ultimate solution. We aren't weird, our food has changed drastically from when the calorie was first identified.
The concept here is going to Healthy weight loss, not just starving yourself. This research needs to happen and those chanting 'eat less exercise more' seem poised to work to destroy anything that stands in the way of that mantra. That pisses me off.
We are all learning the hard way that this formula that worked by chance for a large percentage of the population is no longer working.
Humans change and evolve over time and so has our 'food'. Most of what we put in our bodies today is not representative of the food we ate 100 or so years ago.
This study and challenging of the status quo of the calorie is a much needed improvement to better understand with all the new controls and variables we understand much more of today. No science is set in stone and I am very glad to see this conversation *finally* being addressed outside of the collegiate dogma: Eat less, exercise more.

Valiant attempt at erecting a response.

How the hell did this get posted?!
Maybe internet users should just be issued a number, and we can just rank each other by number.
That's actually a great idea! I will go first.

One should Google: "There are no girls on the Internet"
I would have to say it's superior code that gets the attention.

I am having trouble distinguishing between what you describe as a 'design dept' and an Apple Product...
Wired? Hell they still exist?
I haven't read them in decades...

Technically Fido Net came after the Internet. I think you mean precursor to the Word Wide Web.
I miss those old BBS days though.
