  1. Re:More interested in development on First Program Executed on L4 Port of GNU/HURD · · Score: 5, Interesting
    This is best illustrated by the parable of the OSs and the gun:
    • With Unix you shoot yourself in the foot.
    • With DOS you keep running up against the one-bullet barrier.
    • With MS-Windows the gun blows up in your hand.
    • With MacOS it's easy to shoot yourself in the foot -- just point and shoot.
    • With SVR4 the gun isn't compatible with your foot.
    • With Linux generous programmers from around the world all join forces to help you shoot yourself in the foot for free.
    • With HURD you'll be able to shoot yourself in the foot Real Soon Now.
