Intel donates 250,000 gorillion dollars to FreeBSD

It's a bribe so they can backdoor it

>>59382711
If it means BSD support increase, I'm all for it.

BSD MASTER RACE

Are they even trying?

>>59382768
250k is a lot for freebsd

>>59382711
This isn't bad, but I have some doubts as to why they picked FreeBSD.

Unlike to the Linux ecosystem, $250k probably means a good bunch to FreeBSD.

>assumptions

>>59382796
Give 250k to Linux = money wasted in programs to get gurrrrls to "learn" kernel coding
Give 250k to FreeBSD = money invested in actual work on quality software development

If freebsd improves then open, net, and dragonflybsd will improve as well.

>>59382829
Linux got way more shit done than FreeBSD for the last >10 years, though.

I guess Linux did it with (vastly) more resources and maybe FreeBSD's efficiency is good - but $250k sure isn't going to make FreeBSD competitive with Linux or anything else I can think about.

So what's Intel's plan here?.

Theo along with the rest of the openbsd team are a bunch of cunts, but it's also why SJWs could never possibly take over OpenBSD compared to FreeBSD.

>>59382829
You realize Intel is one of the main contributors to the kernel project and pays employees wages to contribute to the kernel right?

Also:

Maybe FreeBSD will finally get Hawaii GPU support.

>>59382872
>$250k sure isn't going to make FreeBSD competitive with Linux
Nigga, Linux can't compete with FreeBSD on storage because of ZFS.

>>59382886
OpenBSD is a dictatorship. Theo just bans anyone that starts shit in his project. FreeBSD is democratic, people are elected to the leadership roles.

>>59383008
Democracy sucks.

>>59382990
but Linux has ZFS

>>59382766
bribe is to modify freebsd to pass through the intel hardware-based backdoor

>>59383008
I thought 4chan loved dictatorships that kept undesirables out of power.

>>59382990
Eh, you say that, but from smartphone to big data servers basically everything is storing its data on Linux.

Apparently the equivalent filesystems and block device layer things on Linux are equally good or better...

>implying big data doesn't use proprietary database-specific filesystems that don't go through the operating system filesystem abstractions and access the disks directly

>>59383027
For software development a democratic structure means there's always going to be some focus put on things that aren't code. I think really the only reason anyone picks a democratic structure is that it's at least capable of peacefully changing leadership at any point. It's kinda difficult for a dictatorship to do that without some kind of infighting and likely splitting the community.

>>59382872
>So what's Intel's plan here?
Media coverage.

>>59383206
Yea, that's not the only thing they do. They still do a lot of file herding that is NOT sitting in a database, and that quite often these are actually backed on classic filesystems.

Plus, uh, even if you look at the special networked filesystems that distribute database and file / object storage to a cloud:
It's not like BSD is doing well at all with ZFS.

>>59382711
if dumbidia would add a cuda SASS assembler for FreeBSD I would change in a heartbeat

Good thing Theo isn't taking the bribe. CIA niggers showing that once again they compromised FreeBSD cancer

For 60K a year you could hire an OS Devs.
So they give that 250K for what... Let's say 3 Devs and the rest for the coffee and pizzas ?

>>59385264
You can hire a "coder".

Experienced dev who can handle an OS is $120k+ even if he's ideologically motivated to take this job. You can hire one for about two years.

she seemed "fairly stable" until she became a linux sys admin.

>>59386247
Apart from an autistic dedication to adding new security mechanisms not to protect from actual potential attacks, but just for the sake of adding them, it's essentially shittier Linux that tries to leech off Linux. They're so starved for support that a couple of years ago they almost had to shut down their distribution server because they simply couldn't afford to pay for hosting anymore due to being almost completely broke.

They're so desperate for actual end user software and drivers they've long since implemented APIs so that they can run 32 bit linux software and drivers.

>>59388312
It's not like it works properly on FreeBSD too.

>>59382768
It's 250k + helping them with development
