Compared to Linux or OpenBSD, is Plan9 as "secure", i.e. randomization of tcp seq numbers, cryptography, authentication, mitigation of spectre and hardware vulnerabilities etc. Or it needs some improvements? Meaning, if I had a simple C application that could easily be ported to plan9 but it has to be super secure, would 9front be advisable, or it's better to stick with Linux or OpenBSD for the time being?
So essentially, based on the above, the security of Plan 9 depends on the identification of a host? Meaning that if one trusted host is compromised in the network, then you can just mount anyone's devices or filesystems?
If I had only one lens, it would be a 50mm prime. I have 3, mind you, a 35mm, 50mm and 90mm, but 99% of the time, I only attach the 50mm to the camera; zero regrets.
Kai, could the author please share your port of the 64 bits driver? I happen to own a F135. Thanks in advance.
Great article, it brings back some memories.
Other than Ikea, why would a company run this as opposed to Linux or whatever? I understand clustering is cool, feels like a mainframe of sorts, I can probably come close to that with kubernetes. What are the other compelling arguments, there is no software for this platform that isn't readily available for Linux. ELI5 me.
I am a Fortune 500 recruiter; I'd exercise caution if you intend to put unaccredited companies (as opposed to schools) on your resume. You might as well leetcode, it will save you some money and you will get better results.
