Because it's kinda like Entity A (a company) doesn't want to do business (hire) Entity B (a black homosexual 65 year old man). Do you still not see a problem?
"As for the unix philosophy, init systems pre-systemd hardly did just one thing and hardly did it well." What are you talking about!?! my rc.httpd starts/stops apache, period... my rc.ntpd starts/stops ntpd, period... I could go on.
"How does systemd remind you of windows? Have you actually *used* either in a system administration capacity?' YES, yes I have. Windows with it's registry and svchost reminds me ALOT of systemd.
I want to punch everyone in the head who is using Heartbleed as an example of why NOT to use open source. It actually proves that open source development works well. Once the bug was found, the fix was released very quickly. I can guarantee you that if this was a closed source commercial product, the bug would exist a long time and the bug's existence would have been denied for a long time.
If anyone thinks this is an example of open source failure, they are idiots.
I INHERITED some HP/UX servers migrating from PA-RISC to Itanium. A COMPLETE disaster. This is what happens when people are promoted above their capability and moved into IT management but, I digress.
EVERYTHING was a problem. They had custom binaries in which the original authors were long gone on PA-RISC (no idea where the source was, and Aries barfed), drivers gave me headaches (looking at you printers), changes in base commands. Just a horrible experience.
From now on out, when I get asked to spec something, I'm going with the most vanilla, common solutions (e.g. Linux on x86 and exclude java where I can).
"Big surprise.. tech hirer not valuing fields they do not hire from" - that would sound +1 Insightful if the title to the article wasn't "How to Get a Job at Google". Now you just sound angry.
I never understood the ARM server angle.... There are plenty of existing server architectures that work fine now, why add another oddity? If the answer is: x86 is too bloated and ARM can be smaller/faster/better, I just went through sheer HELL with a set of Itanium HP severs (which were supposed to be smaller/faster/better) and it taught me to NEVER buy/recommend buying any 'minority' architecture. x86 might be inefficient but, it's supported by everything I want.

"OpenHAB - developed in Java" Yeah, no thanks!

Sounds like a perfect match for Daylight Savings Time..

Yeah, it's not like the telecom industry is highly regulated... oh wait.
vi is still better.
Russia and China like countries like yours.

Better yet, just hire an indian couple to get married for you. MUCH MORE EFFICIENT!

So, it's a paperless IUO system. Where do I dump my savings to get into this!?!
Ferrari? Fiat? Both break down far too often.

Well, the CIO who decided on this was the CFO (with no IT experience) who was the acting CIO.

Wait, so it's NOT the lack of tectonics that prevents life on Venus but this "737K @ 9.2MPa" thing?

WIN!
PDP emulated on XP? Wow, legacy on legacy. Now, you need to virtualize the XP on a Linux box and you'll be full on nerd-cool!
