Re: Stop using US controlled software stacks!!!

2020-04-29 Thread Guido Stepken

You guys haven't read or understood carefully. I said, that i have not
found any evidence to distrust IBM or to think, that IBM would be sitting
in the NSA boat. IBM, much earlier than other companies, did open source
everything, Power firmware included:

https://github.com/open-power

On the other hand, UEFI.sources never were published, could be compiled
through. Same as Intel IME (Minix) Firmware.

Doesn't mean, that i, in fact, do use IBM stacks for my own mission
critical businesses.

Have fun!

"gcc -fanalyzer" will fundamentally change safety of C programs, such as
Linux, GNOME, DQlite (distributed SQLite), Cython, Python, Crystal, Ruby,
NIM, ZIG, Vala/Genie ... but also the C compiled version of PicoLisp ...

https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2020/03/26/static-analysis-in-gcc-10/

Plenty of proactive security patches are coming out now minutely, which
vastly improve complete Linux environment.

Sadly, Microsoft does _not profit_ from the magic abilities of that new
flow analyzer in GCC. Windows, Office ... all written in C++! :-D

Have fun!
