I understand ... but juggling interrupts, esp lots at one time, IS a pain in the ass. Suppose I should research how Linux DOES it in the finer details. Just ONE timer-triggered big ISR or a zillion little ones ? Multi user multi tasking is nothing new, but HOW each developer gets it to work out minus big probs is a bit of a mystery to me. > Most device drivers will take hardware interrupts, service them as > quickly as possible and flag a main task that they need to wake up and > do the rest. That's my main direct experience with ISRs. Button presses, clock-chip evocations, device inputs. If yer chip still accepts 2.5-3V as a logic one you can do an 8->3 for buttons with just some Schottky diodes :-)

They are processes, so deep down there is some sort of scheduler. It makes my head hurt to contemplate what's really going on in a modern system with multiple cores and so forth. It was so much simpler with a single processor.

Unix "services" (other than the internal kernel services that modern Linux kernels spawn, and even they are more 'process like' than not) are just another user process like every other user process in Unix. The difference is they (often) run as a different user or group identifier than your user processes, they get started up automatically by something (shell scripts on BSD/SYSV style startups, directly by systemd on systemd systems) and they operate without "controlling terminals". As far as being ISR's, typically the kernel does not pass on low level 'interrupt handling' directly to user processes. Instead the "service processes" open whatever "api interface" they use (file, filesystem fifo, socket, etc.) and then block on a read operation on the file descriptor associated with the item. When something arrives for the item, the kernel completes the read, returning control to the process to do something as a result. Usually the process then returns to blocking on a read on the file descriptor waiting for the next "unit of work" to arrive. So most are 'event driven' (by kernel events). However, some (crond) are "timer driven" in that they "wait" for some amount of time then do whatever they have been asked to do. And even those are "event" driven because rather than busy loop, they ask the kernel to "wake me in X length of time". So in the end they get what is effectively a "wakeup event" from the kernel.

I'd argue this may make more sense for Windows (at least before the last version 4.90, which IIRC featured a different boot workflow?) than for the way GUIs and DEs can work on GNU/Linux. I mean, Windows has (again, perhaps expect for 4.90) to be started from MS-DOS (even if IIRC 4.* already does a lot more than just run a GUI on top of DOS). Meanwhile, DEs in GNU/Linux often can be started by whatever system is on PID 1. (But yeah, this is mostly relying on small details that don't matter much, "Windows" nowadays usually refers to Windows NT, and DEs and GUIs on GNU/Linux can also be started from a shell, instead of PID 1. > Both the CLI "shell" and the GUI "shell" just ultimately pass arguments > to the kernel exec() system call.

This does not need to be the case. Around 20 years ago you could have both lightweight DEs (still more than just a window manager, with their own graphical utilities, but with a much smaller memory footprint and a snappier interface) and heavier, feature-rich and customizable bigger DEs like KDE 3. Although this ends up relying upon the definition of "bloat", if one includes "things I don't need" in that and doesn't need DEs, then by definition, all of DEs would be bloated, as opposed to a concept of "lightweight". >> Not total dummies but companies where IP personnel maintain >> strict control of the system and individual who fall prey to the >> Canonical advertising. >> > > That is another significant problem. > > Corporations/companies want uniform software systems.

It can offer that, centrally managed GNU/Linux installs are a thing, although not something I have first-hand experience with. I've heard at least of Puppet. Also, some organizations probably want systems that can be made less uniform, I mean, you'd want employees to work on the projects they have to work on, depending on the work you do, that may require the flexibility to customize the system. Also, not everyone works in the same way, so allowing different graphical environments, different visual editors, etc. is probably a good idea. -- Nuno Silva

A lot of us got into computers WAY back - you even earlier than me. We've put in our time, wrote our million lines of code in many languages. Still have some paper punchtapes around somewhere from the PDP-11 days and a small selection of 8" floppies too. Shit, 'C' was the Cool New Language on the 11's :-) Far more fun than COBOL !

I don’t know about the “very little RAM” bit. Back in the days of the PDP-11, the COBOL compiler was a monster. Our sysadmin kept it chained up in its own batch queue, so nobody could run more than one instance at a time. As for “bug free code” ... remember Y2K?

There's nothing wrong with dnf5 but I'm not fond of the Fedora KDE 'Discover'. It seems very slow and I use it very seldom unless I'm window shopping. I have Synaptic on the Ubuntu box and rarely use it either. Usually I know what I want and install it from the command line and do the updates and upgrades from the command line.

Well Fedora has opted to use only Wayland I believe. Wayland for some reasons has been adopted prematurely by large distros like Fedora and others. Maybe they figure their users have no need for the additional functions of X which Wayland has failed to achieve. PCLinuxOS uses SysV and X in its basic systems and I am using X myself. KDE's Plasma 6 is a bit slower than Plasma 5 but it does not impede me to a marked degree. I prefer Synaptic for doing updates and for finding tools that I learn about. I will have to go and get some drivers for my printer eventually from Epson. Hopefully I will be able to install them soon. But I have a lot on my plate considering that I am sleeping 12-14 hours per day in chunks of 2,4,6 hours. bliss

I spent about 25 years doing Motif GUIs. That was quite enough, thank you. > But I have a lot on my plate considering that I am sleeping 12-14 hours > per day in chunks of 2,4,6 hours. Sounds like the cat. She's old, arthritic, snores, sheds, and sleeps a lot at random times. We're a good match. If I get up to take a leak she looks at me and asks "Are we getting up yet?" Then we both go back to sleep.

Gnome's entire angle is: "there is only one way to do "that", and it is the way we proscribe for you to do it". As to the CLI, it is only "fool proof" from the fact that the "fools" are one or more of: 1) unaware it exists, 2) afraid of it or 3) do not know anything about how to use it. But a "fool" who manages to learn enough to try to use the CLI will rapidly find that it is not at all "fool proof". It is instead very unforgiving of mistakes.

It is possible to detect if stdout is connected to a terminal vs. connected to something else (pipe, redirected to a file). So the fact that it only appears when piping implies they use "stdout is not a terminal" to decide to output that warning. Which in some way, maybe makes sense. It can't detect directly that it is running from a script vs. typed in by a user, but if stdout is not a terminal then that does imply "non-interactive use" so they did what they could. In any case, the fact that they needed to output the warning at all implies that maybe they ought rethink the "keep cli stable" aspect and not toy around with it enough to need that warning in the first place.

No, the point of apt(8) is to be a deliberately mutable interactive interface, to be changed if it can be improved. If you need, or simply prefer, a more stable interface to the same functionality, you can ignore its existence and keep on using apt-get and apt-cache. -- https://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/
