    The average level of certain comments on some platforms is truly worrying. Although English is not my native language, I believe it is quite clear that the first part of the latest blog post talks about my first experience with FreeBSD, in 2002. Yet some people keep saying that it is impossible that “with 64 GB of RAM you cannot use mutt while compiling” and they start with the insults.

    I should know better by now, but every time it still makes me smile. 🙂

      @stefano Reading ability on some platforms is worrying. At the top of that post it says 10 min read. Whole 10 min worth of words. And there're no "Summarize it with ${MODEL_NAME} buttons". How are you supposed to read it? 🙂

            @stefano What? I play heavily modded Minecraft while compiling stuff on Gentoo. With "only" 32gb RAM. Non-ECC, with ZFS, muahaha.

                @anparker True, that's the problem. But, still, that is the very first part of the article and if they reached the "mutt while compiling KDE part", they're already over the introduction.

                I - by design - don't put a TL;DR part at the beginning. And, by design, didn't divide this in chapters. It's my love letter to FreeBSD, and people aren't forced to read it 🙂

                        @stefano It was pretty clear you were talking about 2002 😹

                        The difference in the scheduler and general kernel stability was really incredible back then!

                            Hah, mine doesn't have interactive comments. If people want to comment, my email address is right there (I get maybe 1–2 blog-related emails per year, and maybe a dozen other spam messages at that address)

                                  @angel Sometimes I think that people have lives full of problems, insecurities, and frustrations, and they vent when they feel they can. Or at least, I hope so. I prefer to think that rather than believe they are ignorant and aggressive.
