schestowitz	That article was written by an angry person, and is full of weak persuasive arguments. Guilt by association, Glittering generalities, character assassination (ad hominem attacks), factually untrue statements. It's really a poor piece of writing, and that is a pity. Because I really do enjoy a good well thought out article on Microsoft bashing.	Oct 04 05:57
schestowitz	This article suggests that Microsoft's supposed love of Linux is not true, which is interesting because right now every one is wondering if it's a marketing facade. However, their evidence to support this suggestion is based on some other company engaging in litigation on their patents. Apparently a known patent troll with previous dealings with Microsoft. They then go on to bash on a Linux blogger who had the nerve to express optimism	Oct 04 05:57

schestowitz	Thanks Roy. This is part of the split (fork) I foresee. Debian was always reluctant, understandably, to conform to RH dominated standards - eg no rpms (even SLW has them - not used tho).	Oct 04 07:27
schestowitz	Through my whole life, I always pushed for standards and documentation. Esp. standards because of HW lock-in.	Oct 04 07:27
schestowitz	But, as with so many things, I see how power (hegemony) can still abuse such things. The future of GNU and FLOSS is freedom - our freedom, of course, not of the powerful.	Oct 04 07:27
schestowitz	Debian needs its freedom - it is the only major distro with a philosophical vision doing exciting things - eg (many more) HURD/BSD and its fork Devuan - typical of the people who use Debian - fighting to keep GNU free and open. Giving us choice.	Oct 04 07:27

r_schestowitz	Only one person encrypts messages to me (you). Before setting up a mechanism for docs dropping I need to see evidence more people who make use of it. Right now it's on my list, but not a top priority.	Oct 05 22:46
r_schestowitz	>>>> The SUEPO people are living behind the moon. It would be so easy for them to buy cheap phones and to use TextSecure/RedPhone (Android) compatible with Signal (iOS). TS/RP will soon be renamed to Signal, just as a side info. And they are stubborn. They might need technical asssistance.	Oct 05 22:46
r_schestowitz	Maybe they need Telegram, or something that's this simple to set up.	Oct 05 22:47

schestowitz	"	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	In a world without Unix…	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	We would probably be using DECNET and the Internet, but I think that VMS and AS/400 would have been a lot more prominent now because companies would have spent more resources working on those platforms than UNIX.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	The reason we got Unix widely spread was because AT&T developed it and distributed it as much as it could to colleges, but in a world without UNIX, VMS and IBM Series 1-AS/400 were king in college and it could have been the model to follow.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	I can see that eventually an free open source operating system would have been created, but the commands that would be used might have looked a lot more than VMS commands than what we are used to in Unix. If we take MUSIC as a sample, MUSIC was developed by Mc Gill and follows the style of mainframe interface.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	The scenario in which UNIX did not existed it could have happened if Kernighan and Ritchie were moved to different projects in AT&T, or shut down by management, C could have been developed in AS/400 or VMS. With luck, we could have been using Plan 9, if later on AT&T decided to invest into development an Operating System. A shame, I liked working with the 3B15/3B2.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	GNU would have been created, and I can see many of the familiar tools available, like emacs or fetchmail, but these were originally developed in UNIX, without UNIX, VMS would have been the second choice and then “ported” to the “Open Source that could have looked like VMS OS and probably based on an amoeba like OS”.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	Another alternative would have been a larger prominence of Amiga OS being that it would have filled the niche for the hobbyists. So, open source tools would have been ported from VMS to Amiga OS, similar to what was done, but it is possible that Commodore would have been around in the 21st century and used the same way many users use their Linux systems today.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	The corporate world would have been to Microsoft, IBM, DEC/Oracle/HP and Apple. Sun might have not existed, hence Java would have not been made, we would have seen C# taking the role of it in the “modern era”, that if C were developed in VMS by K&R. If not, then Microsoft would have developed Pascal#.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	Companies like Google and Yahoo might not be what they are today, it would have been hard to build their technology without a free OS, hence the VMS look alike would have fill the niche.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	This is all speculation, of course, others scenarios might have played out. But one thing for sure, we cannot deny the impact that UNIX has done in computing… A world without Linux would not have been as impacting as they claim to be. Linux grew from the frustration of Andy’s control on Minix. If Linus would not have done it, then Hurd or *BSD would have filled the niche, but UNIX provided the footprint on how these OS look like.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	Without UNIX, it would look like VMS or CPM.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	"	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	UNIX/POSIX becoming a standard was probably inevitable, just swap component names and some architectural choices... like Minix. Standard small modular components is best for a system to evolve and survive.	Oct 08 21:08

schestowitz	In a world without Unix…	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	We would probably be using DECNET and the Internet, but I think that VMS and AS/400 would have been a lot more prominent now because companies would have spent more resources working on those platforms than UNIX.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	The reason we got Unix widely spread was because AT&T developed it and distributed it as much as it could to colleges, but in a world without UNIX, VMS and IBM Series 1-AS/400 were king in college and it could have been the model to follow.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	I can see that eventually an free open source operating system would have been created, but the commands that would be used might have looked a lot more than VMS commands than what we are used to in Unix. If we take MUSIC as a sample, MUSIC was developed by Mc Gill and follows the style of mainframe interface.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	The scenario in which UNIX did not existed it could have happened if Kernighan and Ritchie were moved to different projects in AT&T, or shut down by management, C could have been developed in AS/400 or VMS. With luck, we could have been using Plan 9, if later on AT&T decided to invest into development an Operating System. A shame, I liked working with the 3B15/3B2.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	GNU would have been created, and I can see many of the familiar tools available, like emacs or fetchmail, but these were originally developed in UNIX, without UNIX, VMS would have been the second choice and then “ported” to the “Open Source that could have looked like VMS OS and probably based on an amoeba like OS”.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	Another alternative would have been a larger prominence of Amiga OS being that it would have filled the niche for the hobbyists. So, open source tools would have been ported from VMS to Amiga OS, similar to what was done, but it is possible that Commodore would have been around in the 21st century and used the same way many users use their Linux systems today.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	The corporate world would have been to Microsoft, IBM, DEC/Oracle/HP and Apple. Sun might have not existed, hence Java would have not been made, we would have seen C# taking the role of it in the “modern era”, that if C were developed in VMS by K&R. If not, then Microsoft would have developed Pascal#.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	Companies like Google and Yahoo might not be what they are today, it would have been hard to build their technology without a free OS, hence the VMS look alike would have fill the niche.	Oct 08 21:07
schestowitz	This is all speculation, of course, others scenarios might have played out. But one thing for sure, we cannot deny the impact that UNIX has done in computing… A world without Linux would not have been as impacting as they claim to be. Linux grew from the frustration of Andy’s control on Minix. If Linus would not have done it, then Hurd or *BSD would have filled the niche, but UNIX provided the footprint on how these OS look like.
