I was gonna come in here and say "Joe Biden" but i couldn't figure out how to turn it into a reference to the government spying on people.
I don't know when I'll next get the opportunity to ask this, so
How do people pronounce this: "gee lib cee" or "glib cee"?
I have the same question about clang
idk what the official pronunciation is, but i say "gee lib cee" and "clang" (like the onomatopoeia)
Just to confirm, I say gee lib cee or lib cee as well. Honestly, I have never heard any different.
Since the pronunciation of "gif" became an issue, I stopped caring about how anyone says anything. My pet giraffe has his own opinion though.
Having maintained Linux systems for over a decade, I instantly distrust anyone who claims they understand Linux regardless of what they say next.
I have 20 years of Linux experience. I tell people 'I know a few things.'
Would never say I know everything or understand everything though.
Just like an xkcd comic I expect to see someone reply that has 30 years experience or something.
I recently tried to compile an Raspberry pi image. I have no idea what to do when an error occurs. And I am a software developer who should at least have an idea. However goggle helps
It solves the problem but you get several megabytes of output, better pipe that into a file and do some filtering and finish with sort -u

Why would you want dynamic linking? Afraid you will change your mind?
It also makes updating easier. When a lib has a bug it can be fixed by updating one package. If every application on your system was statically linked, each one of these would have to be updated individually.
But then you definitely wouldn't have errors with different apps requiring different versions of the same library.

That's why libfoo.so.1.2.3
, libfoo.so.1.2.4
, libfoo.so.1.3.9
, etc. exist. Flatpak also exists. Just link to a specific version of a freedesktop.org Runtime.
But dynamic linking saves space AFAIK
Yes, it does and while I'm not a pedant about saving every possible byte in a time of terabyte SSDs, static linking everything is just insanely wasteful.
Neat, I wish some of these projects weren't so apt to prime themselves for corporate takeover and instead stuck more with copy left.
Though I think I prefer the guix set up of keeping a unique package based on checksum and linking those out as required.
I doubted. I checked. Check passed.

Reminds me of an interview i was in. I was like, this isn't even in my job description... 7 interviews later. Come to find out, they were HAND DEPLOYING Linux servers to try to scale for double of their user base. I feel like I dodged a bullet.
Wait you mean there's better ways to scale than deploying a whole new hardware and click ops your way through installs? /s
So when I was in the interview, you know, typically you answer questions, right? I mean there's some back and forth, but typically you're on the end of the stick.
It was Zello. They wanted someone to continue manual deployment. Are you fucking kidding me? Read the reviews. They are all consistent with a good product and an outdated infrastructure team.
Best of luck.
