I like to be more hobbyist kernel developer and maintainer than professional kernel developer and maintainer :-)

I made the right call for me of not going to a Linux company after my industry sabbatical.

@oleksandr @josefbacik oh dear...

My recent take on topic: https://social.kernel.org/notice/AqdTaAU90fB1H7rlzM

Not discussing about it further :-) People can go nuts.

Suomen pelimuseo viettää lauantaina kahdeksansia syntymäpäiviään. Ainutlaatuisena herkkuja synttäreillä tarjoillaan myös livemusiikkia. Retropelillisen ja museollisen ohjelman lisäksi luvassa onkin myös väkevää kitarasankarimeininkiä Romeo Knightin custom-soitinarsenaalin ja Basscadetin SID-thereminin kera.
Ja huom: synttäriä voi katsoa myös museon Areenalla ja Paradroidsin keikka on IRL live, sitä saa tulla katsomaan ihan muutaman metrin päästä.

@Aissen Long-term stay in the OSS community is based on not being smart IMHO but instead of being open about your mistakes and even bad behavior. That makes a difference to the general social media discussion type of bullshit.

@Aissen I can admit by now that I also did my share of "Rust rage". It is better to admit when you've been incredibly stupid. I'm now in acceptance phase ;-)

@Aissen Thanks for asking that. I'll put a remark to the cover letter. It would not be a problem for me personally. My argument comes from more like doing right things right from the process angle

Unfortunately Ihave had not time to push forward since I've been fixing Windows build issue :-) After I've done my release critical fixes for the next Polkadot release (for PolkaVM) I plan to put focus on this again.

Fixing Windows build was good learning otho. This is how you bootstrap a build for arbitrary target so that the build system won't trip and it will work out Linux/macOS/Windows:

https://github.com/paritytech/polkavm/blob/7715ad466e2d084e86e01e8341eb53ad0d86c3c0/crates/polkavm-test-data/build.rs

Nothing complicated but finding the simple recipe that actually works is sometimes tedious :-) I did not find any example that would be as generically applicable as this...

I did that consideration actually.

Here's the summary of reasons of using C for that driver at minimum for the first RFC patch set:

1. The existing code base is in C.
2. I'm not an expert on V4L2.
3. I'm pretty seasoned with the Linux driver model.

I.e. if you start to do too much to the domain per, there might be something "unimportant looking" that you look as "garbage", while you're actually removing something that does something useful.

This is IMHO pretty sound way to look at it. Since it is my hobby project given feedback, I might then re-consider re-implementing it in Rust. It is actually good comment to add to the cover letter.

IMHO, no matter who was doing this I make the right *first* call both from "respect the creators" and also technical angle. I cycled SGX patch set for over two years so writing the same driver a few times is like nothing ;-)

Is this the first rust resistance type of article of the year: https://lwn.net/Articles/1006805/

I thought we got over it and now it is just yet another boring language we use (which is great) :D

Microsoft on SharePoint in 2025. What about the user who don't have "AI goals"?

I mean I might have AI goals too, like pricing my used gear that I sell but I have other goals too than just AI.

@TalesFromTheArmchair You're welcome! It is painful for me to push commits if I don't take this type of stuff in detail. It's not even like first and foremost even politeness: I've been kernel maintainer long enough that I feel that I compromise myself or something like that if I don't always be super explicit on these :-)

My comment about Windows being malware was honestly no relation to Meta's actions. I was wondering why I got so many likes about my silly complains :D I complain about everything every day. It's a stupid lifestyle choice but keeps one going.

I don't care what Meta does or doesn't do. They can do whatever they want in Facebook as far as I'm concerned (I don't care).
