I recently wrote http://jdebp.info/FGA/original-vi.html and was thinking of doing something like this, to augment it; because Sven Guckes's list (https://guckes.net/vi/clones.html) is definitely dated and incomplete, nowadays.
It does not have #NeoVIM (for obvious reasons). Most lists of clones miss that there are several forks of Bostic #nvi, not least the two forks that are in #FreeBSD and #NetBSD base. Similarly, #DragonFlyBSD has forked nvi2.

New #blog post alert!
I muse about research some of my grad students and I did around independently evaluating some #OpenBSD anti-ROP mitigations, and I bid farewell to being an OpenBSD developer.

Gonna build a #CPAN testing VM with #DragonflyBSD. Any gotchas that my fedihomies think that a seasoned Unixhead should know about?

New #blog post. Let's write a peephole optimizer for #QBE that operates on #AArch64 assembly code. Three years ago, we did this for #AMD64 assembly code. But now that I have Arm machines, we can replicate the effort for another CPU architecture.

The #BoxyBSD project is taking a pause from provisioning completely free #vps instances / #vserver. For further questions, reach out to @gyptazy or in our Matrix chat.
After publishing the new self-service portal and making it easier to use and get a free VPS instance, we got a lot more new users who requested an instance than usual. We’re not out of resources but we want to provide a great and reliable service and have a buffer for upcoming things.
We’re already restocking the resources and adding new nodes to the project but temporary stop provisioning new instances. In the meantime, we will provide new services that will make the overall experience for users much better and easier.
We already started this with the new #NAT64 gateways and the new free #loadbalancing service that allows you to serve your website also on #IPv4, even your box is #IPv6 only.
We’re addicted to the #BSD community and hope to provide your quickly more #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenBSD, #DragonflyBSD and all the other bsd based systems again. In the meantime - have fun and #RUNBSD

@royal @fedora @SlashNevSlashDull
Wow, that's really #wholesome
Don't anyone forget @debian and #slackware, though! The grand-pappys of them all! ;)
And also, the other part of the #FreeSoftware OS family, the #BSDs! #OpenBSD, #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #DragonflyBSD and derivatives, take a bow!

Trying Out The #BSDs On The #Intel Core i9 13900K "#RaptorLake"
-- Of #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenBSD & #DragonFlyBSD, only one managed to boot out-of-the-box on the latest-gen CPU.

A wild #blog post appears!
Let's study the #LLVM and #GCC optimizers around the question of increments and decrements and see how they differ. Then we can make a decision as to whether or not we want to teach those optimizations to our #QBE optimizer we've been working on.

I wrote a peephole optimizer for QBE. QBE missed a couple of easy optimization wins, so let's use it as an opportunity to learn how peephole optimizers work and write one of our own.
