ILinus Torvalds noDirk Hohndel , Umqondisi Womthombo Ovulekile kwaVMWare, ukhulume ngekusasa leLinux kanye nokwakhiwa kwale phrojekthi ebabazekayo ngesikhathi somhlangano wokuqala we-kernel ngenxa yalolu bhubhane.
Kule Ngqungquthela babuyekeze izici eziningi, kusukela kufayela le- usayizi ongavamile we-Linux 5.8 kernel, njengoba sishilo, kwezinye izici zekusasa lephrojekthi. Ngokuya ngosayizi, kubonakala sengathi ukuboshwa kube yingxenye yalokhu kubangwa, ngeminikelo eminingi lapho onjiniyela bevaleleke ekhaya. Okusho ukuthi, i-SARS-CoV-2 isheshisa obunye ubuchwepheshe.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, kuqinisekisile ukuthi akekho noyedwa kubathuthukisi othintwe yigciwaneYize uTorvalds ekhathazekile ngomunye wabathuthukisi bayo owahlala ungaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi inyanga eyodwa noma ezimbili. Kepha ekugcineni kwavela ukuthi inkinga kwaba ukulimala kwengcindezi okuphindaphindwayo, okuvame kakhulu kubathuthukisi be-software.
Ngokwakhe, uHohndel ubelokhu ekhuluma nge ukwehluka emphakathini ukuthuthukiswa kweLinux, into yamanje ngenxa yemibhikisho nezibhelu ezenzeka emhlabeni wonke ngenxa yokushona kukaFloyd. Ngabaholi abathile abamnyama abanjengoKelsey Hightower noByyan Liles, yize iningi labo lingabamhlophe, linobuningi bamaShayina namaNdiya njengoba kubonakala eziqongweni ezingaphezulu kwenhlamvu. Eqinisweni, uTorvalds uqobo waqaphela ukuthi kuneminye imiphakathi, njengaleyo yamanye amaphrojekthi amafu, ahluke kakhulu kunayo ...
Kwakukhona nendawo ye- ukubuyekeza umsebenzi abakwenzayo manje, futhi ngokusho kukaTorvalds ngokuyisisekelo 'ngokoqobo into ebaluleke kakhulu, siyahlanza futhi sixazulula inkinga. […] I-Linux iyisicefe futhi kufanele kube njalo.«. Kepha kuyisicefe kwabanye, njengokunye kuyathakazelisa kakhulu, ikakhulukazi uma uthanda ukuxhumana kwezinga eliphansi kakhulu nehadiwe.
Mayelana ikusasa lokuthuthukiswa kweLinuxSengivele ngiphawule kwesinye isikhathi ukuthi uLinus ngeke ahlale unomphela, nokuthi uGreg yindoda yesandla sakhe sokudla engathatha izintambo. Le nkinga iphinde yaxoxwa kule ngqungquthela, njengoba iningi labaholi abakhona selineminyaka engaphezu kwengama-50 ubudala. UTorvalds uqinisekisile «Kithina akukho okuthakazelisa njengokuxhumana ezingeni eliphansi nehadiwe nokulawula konke okwenzekayo. Ngakho-ke ungangitholi ngephutha, ama-cores awadinisi, kepha kuyiqiniso impela ukuthi abantu abaphambili bebekhona amashumi eminyaka. Yebo, siyaguga.".
Abaningi be onjiniyela abadala Sebevele bathuthela ekunakekelweni nasekuphathweni futhi bashiye umugqa wokuqala wentuthuko. UTorvalds uqobo uyicala: «Angilithandi igama lokuphatha, ngoba angizibheki njengomlawuli, kepha empeleni yilokho engikwenzayo.«. Manje abathuthukisi abaneminyaka engama-20 noma engama-30 yibo abenza umsebenzi wohlelo ngempela.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, iTorvalds wakhumbula enye inkinga enkulu ezine: "Asinabo abanakekeli abenele. Kuyavela ukuthi kunzima ukuthola abantu abangabanakekeli. Kuyathakazelisa futhi kuyinselele, kepha okunye ukwehla kokuba ngumlondolozi we-kernel ukuthi kufanele ube lapho ngaso sonke isikhathi. Mhlawumbe akuwona amahora angama-24 ngosuku, kepha nsuku zonke lapho usabela khona ku-imeyili, kufanele ube lapho. […] Kuthatha isikhathi, kudinga ulwazi. Ukwenza lokho isikhashana, njengomondli ovela ngezansi ukuqala ukukhasa bese uthola ukwethenjwa ngabantu abanele.".
UHohndel ubuye wabuza uTorvalds ukuthi ngabe abahleli bama-C bangaguqulwa yini izinhlelo ezintsha ze-COBOL kusukela ngawo-2030. ULinus waphendula wathi: «Ngicabanga ukuthi uC isengolunye lwezilimi eziyi-10 eziphezulu. Abantu babheke ngenkuthalo ukwenza abashayeli nezinto ezingabalulekile kakhulu ku-kernel, ngokwesibonelo kuRust. Abantu bebelokhu bekubona lokho iminyaka. Nginesiqiniseko sokuthi kuzokwenzeka ngelinye ilanga.»
Kwakukhona ngisho indawo khuluma nge-Apple nokuya kwayo ku-ARM, ilahla i-x86. ULinus ukholelwa ukuthi isikhundla samanje sezakhiwo sizoshintsha futhi siqinisekise ukuthi: «Eminyakeni eyi-10 edlule noma ngaphezulu bengikhala ngokuthi bekunzima ukuthola ihardware ye-ARM esetshenziselwa ukuthuthukiswa. Kukhona, kepha kuze kube manje abakawulomncintiswano wangempela we-x86.«. Kunezinto ezifana ne-AWS nezinqubo zayo zeGraviton, kepha iTorvalds ayilithandi ifu: «Abathuthukisi beKernel bafuna ukuba nomshini phambi kwakho. […] Ngiyenqaba ukuthuthukisa noma yini engingakwazi ukuyisebenzisa njengedeskithophu yami".
Kukho konke lokhu, uHohndel wenza ihlaya ukusho lokho "I-Apple, uma ulalele, thola iLinus enye yama-laptops wokuqala we-ARM".
