Why Linux will dominate the future of servers
George Weiss, Gartner's open-source analyst, recently said that Microsoft Windows will not suffer irreparable damage on the server side at the hands of Linux over the next five years. He's right. Microsoft will fall flat on its face all by itself, and Linux will pick up afterwards.

Linux for the supernewbie
So you have heard of Linux, you read somewhere that it is more secure, and runs a lot of the web services using something called LAMP (or something like that). You are curious, but you have a working system now (you know it's quirks, and how to workaround what doesn't work or to get it working) and are nowhere near ready to take the plunge.

My first 10 years with Linux
What's different these days from things 10 years ago? Red Hat is making a profit, for one thing. Linux is not only driving server hardware sales and hosting Apache Web sites, it's appearing in handheld devices, personal video recorders, and cell phones. Its superior security has resulted in it being used by intelligence agencies like the NSA and the CIA.

What do dependencies have to do with Free Software?
There is one huge difference between the free and non-free software that has some very practical implications in the way we use it.

Articol bun, dar care ascunde gunoiul sub preş. Mă aşteptam să conţină şi atenţionări de genul: orice soft care necesită un anumit soft GPL pentru a funcţiona va fi automat sub licenţă GPL. Free as in Freedom e softul licenţiat BSD. GPL e Free as in Communism.
 
Pisoi, interacţiunea între un soft GPL şi altul nu implică neapărat că al doilea trebuie să fie GPL. Trebuie să restrîngi aria dacă vrei să ai dreptate. Trebuie ca al doilea să fie GPL dacă e derivat din primul. Simpla interacţiune nu are nimic de-a face cu asta. Să ne reamintim că aceste licenţe au de-a face cu dreptul de autor asupra codului.

Iar diferenţa între BSD şi GPL eu o fac simplu: public ceva sub GPL atunci cînd vreau să mă asigur că al meu cod va rămîne public pe măsură ce se propagă. Folosesc BSD cînd public ceva ce vreau să fie cît mai larg folosit, cu accent pe folosirea efectivă.
