Hey #FediHire,

I'm a veteran #AIX / #Linux / #Storage system admin who has specialized in site reliability and devops before it was a thing. I'm looking for employment or contract work. I can do remote but would love to work in person in Calgary too!

I've designed, deployed, and maintained fleets of systems supporting ERP landscapes and other commercial applications.

I find structure in your chaos, I automate my way to laziness and reliability.

I now have a fully working "Zenith Data Systems MastersPort 386SL" with 4MB RAM and 387 math co-processor!

xenenic,

I'm up too late, managed to get IBM AIX PS/2 1.3.0 at least checking blocks on the 200MB Seagate, it might even install but we'll have to see.

xenenic,

Getting closer to having IBM AIX PS/2 1.3.0 installed! Currently having an issue with the installer actually making the minidisks/filesystems. Leaning towards it being the old 200MB Seagate HDD. Currently going through my limited stash of 2.5 IDE drives to see if I can find another drive that might work while the Seagate does a low level format.

xenenic,

Installed successfully! Now to see if I can get X11 working as I would like to see the AIX Desktop.

Big anniversary! What should I get her?

I'm convinced that #IBM #AIX's #SMIT is the inspiration for #YaST from @opensuse & @SUSE ...

kkarhan,

And yes, @ncommander is right:

#AIX is #IBM sabotaging the #AimAlliance effort themselves...

No wounder #macOS is the only #UNIX of relevance today and #Linux owns #Servers and will own #Workstations sooner or later...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzhCGSE7KKw&t=1480s

kkarhan,

@HopelessDemigod @ncommander

That being said #AIX and the #RS6000 is as far away from a #consumer #PC as #zArchitecture, #DB2 and a lot of other #IBM products...

After all #Services make #Software,
Software makes #Operating Systems,
#OperatingSystems make #Hardware.

Otherwise noone would deal with #AMD64 and everyone would've transitioned to #ARM64 or even #RiscV #128Bit ages ago...

State of the Web, circa 2023:

“Would you like to use the browser by Company X, or the browser by the company that survives on half-a-billion dollars a year from Company X, or the browser by the company that gets paid an estimated $20 billion a year by Company X even though it can survive without it?”

We desperately need a web browser by an independent organisation funded by EU taxpayer money and maintained for the common good.

@keithzg @kpeace @aral My sweet summer child, even in the pre-1.0 betas #Netscape was on #Windows, #Mac, and a panoply of #Unix platforms (#DEC #Tru64 (then called OSF/1 AXP), #HPUX, #SGI #IRIX, IBM #AIX, #SunOS, Sun #Solaris, #BSDI, and #Linux): http://home.mcom.com/archives/

It wasn’t “ported.”

Today I used #bpftrace on a #Linux system to investigate a performance issue. Really took me back to my days working on #Solaris at Sun Microsystems. I used #dtrace quite a bit at that time, and it's good to see the same good ideas thriving in Linux.

I worked in #AIX development at #IBM for many years, and I was always a little sad that people didn't use #probevue more. Perhaps this is because AIX has a good system trace infrastructure and the culture grew up using that. Hard to say.

@swagpussc The basic thing to understand is that this is not a world of Windows.

There have always been other operating systems, and in particular there has been, since the late 1960s, a large class of operating systems that are: Unix; one of the many flavours of Unix that #Unix split into in the 1970s; or someone creating an operating system that's very much like Unix, from the ground up, a decade or 2 later.

#Linux is (the kernel of) the last sort of operating system.

(continued...)

JdeBP,

@swagpussc (...continued)
Often forgotten by people is the period in between. The people who cloned Linux and the (GNU) "shell" around it often worked from samizdat doco about 1970s Unix.

In the 1980s and early 1990s, there were a whole bunch of commercial #Unix flavours: #Xenix, HP/UX, #AIX, #SunOS, #Ultrix, OSF/1, AT&T System 3, AT&T System 5, ...

#Illumos, which came from #Solaris, which came from SunOS, is actually still around.
