FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE is now available: https://t.co/vXgqie6tgP
Thanks to all the developers who worked on this, everyone who tested and reported bugs, and also to Amazon who sponsored my work (FreeBSD/EC2 and release engineering) for the past year.
Dear Programmers.
Turing called us: “Mathematicians of ability”. He wasn’t wrong; but he missed something. We are not _just_ mathematicians, we are also scientists.
Mathematics is a discipline of logic and reason, and every programmer must be adept at those things. But programmers must also base their conclusions on experiential observation. We create hypotheses and then test them experimentally.
We are mathematicians and scientists of ability.
We have a word for mathematical scientists. We call them: Engineers.
Dave and I have been working on adding per-jail metadata feature to #FreeBSD.
Many thanks to the Jails Working Group for their feedback over the past few months. Now it's time for wider feedback. Dave's blog provides the details and some great examples: https://t.co/mxPcLzzhSa

https://t.co/giEF6dXo0l At OpenFest 2024, I presented a significant improvement to the FreeBSD development process as a result of my recent work. OpenFest plays an important role in supporting open-source software.

The correct answer here is 0: If foo and bar are hard linked, mv foo bar has no effect and foo continues to exist. This is in fact explicitly required by POSIX!
I asked Kirk McKusick about this at @eurobsdcon and his best guess was that SysV had a bug and POSIX standardized it.
Can you help test native cloud containers on #FreeBSD?
From Sept. to Oct. 11, 2024, the FreeBSD Open Container Initiative Runtime Extension Working Group is hosting a time-boxed testing project for its experimental implementation of #Podman. #OCI
