When I was in college, my Nuclear Physics class used to start at 8 AM, and everyday when I used to wake up at 7 AM , I had this thought: "Oh shit... I have to go to do that fucking retarded thing again" When I become salesman, then a call-center executive, then a steward, I still used to hate my work. When I joined this Socket Programming job, I still hate to go to job but now thoughts are different: "Eh.. Holy Cow... I have to go to work again. Hey.. I am going to write code, I will sit on my desk and will start loving again" Even though I enjoy it, write quality code is a lot of hard work. I think I am clear enough this time :) > When many more people should join to have fun hacking on the Hurd, that should > equal fewer people working really hard (and might even archieve more, since > having fun is a very efficient way of working). yeah, thats big problem, Hurd does not have much programmers, much lesser as compared to gcc, GNOME and of course Linux kernel development. I never understood why they have so many people working on those softwares. > $ ls blah.zip,,unzip.lisp > > :) > > If you test them, please tell me the results! I can't, I don't have a computer.
