Sandboxing libraries specifically seems like a fools errand.
Yes, yes. It's got some access control and security sugar sprinkled in but the idea of 'userland for everything!' is clearly wrong if eBPF moving stuff back into the kernel is "The biggest OS development in my career"
Choice is why Apple isn't gouging developers with 100 dollar service subscriptions just to sign packages right?
I'm sure it started accidentally but was continued because it magically turned shitty sour wine into sweet wine.
A side note; we still actively use artificial sweeteners from petrochemical sources.
Brazil: any foreigner looking to work in Brazil must have a work visa or Brazilian residency. In most cases, you should have a job secured before planning to move. The employing company must submit a work permit application to its local Ministry of Labor & Employment – this is the first step to meet the requirements in the work visa application process. After the application is approved, the approval is published in one of the local legal newspapers and sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. After this, the Ministry will contact the Consulate or Embassy, which will then start the visa process.
No. Even South American countries don't have any open-door policies.
"In the space of one hundred and seventy-six years the Lower Mississippi has shortened itself two hundred and forty-two miles. That is an average of a trifle over one mile and a third per year. Therefore, any calm person, who is not blind or idiotic, can see that in the Old Oolitic Silurian Period,' just a million years ago next November, the Lower Mississippi River was upwards of one million three hundred thousand miles long, and stuck out over the Gulf of Mexico like a fishing-rod. And by the same token any person can see that seven hundred and forty-two years from now the Lower Mississippi will be only a mile and three-quarters long, and Cairo and New Orleans will have joined their streets together, and be plodding comfortably along under a single mayor and a mutual board of aldermen. There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact."
The wealth of people like Bazos, Gates, Buffet, Greenspan, etc turn the suffering of entire generations into rounding errors.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions so I guess I will see you all in hell.
If something is deeply broken, it's what allows them to thrive in spite of themselves.

Reasons to dislike systemd as a professional sys admin?
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2402 - brick EFI based systems!

I can keep going, but how are you doing on my questions?
It's not wrong to use. Its wrong to codify it or enact it as policy because what a corporate security goons published "password requirements" is really just "search space reducers" For example; not wasting my time on guesses below the 8 char minimum. Thanks security guy, that saved a BUNCH of time!
If anyone is embracing, extending and extinguishing its Redhat's giant lovecraftian eldrich horror starting at Pid 1 as it's tentacles spread across the (user)land to incite madness and crush the life out of system administrators.
Would you use YubiKey ever again after they got caught putting keyloggers into one model? That's what the entire security community does every time they so much as entertain anything the NSA says.
Nintendo made an informed decision and their hardware is welcome on my networks.
I suspect this popped up in meetings and is at least partly the reason for the design now.
I kid but the ABI seems like where the whole things ultimately headed. The non systemd segment is larger than you initially suspect. Google alone has enough of a stake between android, chromeOS et al.

Careful with that word "gullible" - I do not think it means what you think it means.

This is why specifically lead is highlighted.
Just more of the extremely high cost of being poor.

Cheap bullshit, not technical limitation, is at the heart of this level of "compatibility" issues.
A) you have money to keep a lawyer on it; No problem.
B) you don't have money for a lawyer; Tough shit.
Nothing beyond real unilateral enforcement of the system already in place is required.
That may sound like hyperbole but somehow I doubt it's far from the mark. Tons of modern advances were from novices or unaccredited. Flight, Relativity, Baysian and Boolean logic; Two hicks, a patent clerk, a preacher, and a self-taught math nerd.
