That sounds very complex. Maybe he should start with a software revision system. Or instead of a big complex kernel maybe he can split it up into a bunch of microkernel components.

@@mrmotofy What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
@@mrmotofy Yup, there are many like myself who waited until Linux matured and/or saw how in most aspects it's technically superior. My guess is as Microsoft does the SaaS route with Windows and Office, there will be many many desktops switching to Linux in the next few years. I would never rent an OS, it's ludicrous.
59:13 this speech was done in 2012 ... when this guy asked the question about the new frontier of open-cource, most people (includinf myself) probably thought this was just some meaningless clishee of a question, but as of now, we have a new category altogether : OPEN HARDWARE , mostly being associated with 3d printers and the leader in the game, Prusa Research, who had attained legendary status, but the new wave of Open Hardware is upon us and honestly it's ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
I think its the norm in north and west europe. Im dutch ... we also love getting to the point and be honest about things instead of all these nonsense shit talks around everything. Its really efficient way to work and people trust each other much better. Foreigners do think we are "rude". But for us its actually polite.

When he spoke about pre-installed he's absolutely correct. Also big companys such as Adobe and Game devs will make more software if they get those preinstalls. So i think linux has alot more to go baby :)
I built my first PC at 13, turning 14. I was obviously a poor teenager, and therefore resorted to the open source OS Ubuntu. 9 years later I was studying full time in IT, and today, now 7 years later, I am a cyber security analyst for a financial corporation. I guess in a way, I owe my livelyhood to Linus
Apple, Google, Amazon, and Twitter are truly despised right now, and Linus Torvalds is unequivocally loved by everyone who knows about him. If someone were to take down any of the 4 digital horsemen, nobody would shed a tear. If Linus ever needed a favor or financial assistance, nobody who knows about him would hesitate to voluntarily, and without asking his permission, start a fund or contribute to one, to help him. This is the power of not partaking in antisocial behavior and business practices. I practice this myself every day. Sharing your ideas and information openly provides you much more power AND HAPPINESS, and the Loyalty of your community, than greedily clinging to secrets and keeping everyone else in the dark about what you're doing.
46:02 I think he's talking about the saying: "He that reaches into the spruce, shall be caught in the juniper." In Finnish: "Joka kuuseen kurkottaa, se katajaan kapsahtaa."
How cool is it to watch this video and hear the King of Kernel speak from a Linux desktop ? Thanks Linus, you truly made this world a better place... And don worry Linus, Linux will take over the desktop world one disgruntled and fed-up windows user at the time....
Carter Cole We all did that back in the 80's. On cpu's like 6502, 680xx etc. The instruction set's was considerable smaller than on later cpu's, so it looks more impressing that it actually is :). Another thing was that routines often had to be cycle exact, so in addition to type in the OP codes we often had to know how many cycles the cpu used to perform each instruction.
It is assembly code. Just instead of typing the assembly mnemonics you typed their opcode values instead. After you've typed them hundreds or even thousands times you know them pretty well. Before there came any good assembler we just typed the opcodes in a monitor, directly into the memory. No memory allocations etc. back then. Just hardcore, no relocatable, code :D
IKR ? like, I know Stallman is sometimes full of crap, but DAMN, I always felt like there's more to open source than just voluntary cooperative development ... it's something that I can not put into words, it's ungraspable, but it's there, and you know the feeling, and it's AWESOME
0:30:26 If you were to do Linux again what license would you choose? 0:32:12 Do you think Linux is in good hands - if you decide to not touch the computer it would still go on? ("Hit by bus scenario - Who will take over?") 0:35:11 Although you are a technical person and interested in [OS] programming and not interested in other areas, UI, etc. Whatever you say influences a lot of other areas. How do you feel about your influences in those other areas you are not interested in?

interesting points: 1. there's no plan in Linus open project, it just spontaneously works. 2. we have many friends, but only around 10 people we trust in certain area. and they have their trust list. like a tree structure.

The professor/host strikes me as apathetic to Linus. Linus is an interesting guy. Linus, thanks for the contributions to linux. Don't know who wrote the GNU tools grep/awk but they are a DREAM for data analysis.
Outside of 'flipping the bird' to Nvida, Linus makes many good comments about why Open Source solutions should really be considered for development projects. Take code to the next level by adding in your secret sauce, leverage the existing community, and sharing your findings back to the community to help others out from your own experience.
YEEEAH, and while Affinity is actually putting out way better deals than Adobe for their production software, that's another ADUBE, F U!

Watch it all the way to 1:00:30. In the end an nVidia employee has questions. He is really humble and many people know who he works for (people are laughing).
I think he may be considered as the worthy successor of Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie whom he says he‘s an admirer. For Linux of course, but a lot more obviously for git, which is, as he says, his very own creation. He just revolutionized source code management in a so elegant manner (from his experience in filesystem development afaik), which has been adopted so widely and so astonishingly fast. Best software developer for the 21e century in my opinion.
My hero!. He is a kernel programmer (the real kind in the classic sense). Thanks to him, I have 3.2.0-26 on two machines. 2.6.35-14 MoneyComb Tablet. 2.6.29 Sony Phone. All of these I used daily!. Linux kernel has to be the most used kernel on this planet by now.
Highly inspiring speak that made me proud to one of the IT crowd that actually knows all about issues he spoke about. Basically he is 100% right in doing what he does the way he does it, he has made a community of like minded people linked toward one of the most awesome ideas in the last few decades,and hopefully once the desktop is broken,and it starts to reign supreme over closeminded/codec stuff the mission goal of free will be reached.
I've seen the problem with nVIDIA® firsthand, installing Ubuntu® on a rebuilt eMachines®/Acer® EL1210-09 with Shuttle® upgrade PSU and Asus® EN210/DI/512MD3 upgrade VDA - the LinUX Kernel Project had to reverse-engineer the nVIDIA® MCP78S drivers for Microsoft® Windows® NT™ just to get critical information needed for writing drivers, and the X Organization still couldn't support the GeForce® 210, as of 2012.

@0:20:40 Do you follow development of any new programming languages? Do you see any other languages aside from C suitable for OS dev?
@0:23:43 Why has Linux never been competitive at the desktop level?
@0:27:13 You see yourself as a technical person; growing must had to deal with a lot business related things?
@0:28:05 When you were developing Linux you started it as a project but as the OS grew your perspective changed about the OS. How long did take to change your perspective to your current one?

Michael Pohoreski - Your welcome =)
Excellent talk, room was full and the Q&A was brilliant and hillarious.
49:57 on nvida. Eight years later, NVidia now has almost 200 repositories on GitHub. Eventually they came around.
K DC jnn
And still no normal open source graphic driver implementation on linux
No it was people not nvidia who made them.
That doesn't mean shit.
Thank you once again Mr. Torvalds for making our world a better and happier place to live.
Came for the nvidia fuck you and wasn't dissapointed
When he spoke about pre-installed he's absolutely correct. Also big companys such as Adobe and Game devs will make more software if they get those preinstalls. So i think linux has alot more to go baby :)
"for those of who who're young enough to still be studying, hey! enjoy the hell out of that time!" it really caught me. @43:46
Writing machine code for 5-6years. ohmygod dude
0:27 Windows 7 sound ? WTF
ahahaha
I wanted to comment about it! LOL
nice catch lol
Lol😅😅
Do you know the win7 sound? what a shame! =P lol
I just wanted to know why people dislike this speech. Hey guys, this guy made a nice thing to the world though !!
I built my first PC at 13, turning 14. I was obviously a poor teenager, and therefore resorted to the open source OS Ubuntu. 9 years later I was studying full time in IT, and today, now 7 years later, I am a cyber security analyst for a financial corporation. I guess in a way, I owe my livelyhood to Linus
We all do.
He’s so humble, it’s incredible.
Look like it was filmed yesterday
I am posting this from my Xubuntu 12.04 box. I can tell you this: I love it.
Linux > BSD > * > Mac OS X.
Haven't used BSD. I know it is Unix based, but what is the differentiating factor for it?
Apple, Google, Amazon, and Twitter are truly despised right now, and Linus Torvalds is unequivocally loved by everyone who knows about him. If someone were to take down any of the 4 digital horsemen, nobody would shed a tear. If Linus ever needed a favor or financial assistance, nobody who knows about him would hesitate to voluntarily, and without asking his permission, start a fund or contribute to one, to help him. This is the power of not partaking in antisocial behavior and business practices. I practice this myself every day. Sharing your ideas and information openly provides you much more power AND HAPPINESS, and the Loyalty of your community, than greedily clinging to secrets and keeping everyone else in the dark about what you're doing.
46:02 I think he's talking about the saying: "He that reaches into the spruce, shall be caught in the juniper."
In Finnish: "Joka kuuseen kurkottaa, se katajaan kapsahtaa."
How cool is it to watch this video and hear the King of Kernel speak from a Linux desktop ?
Thanks Linus, you truly made this world a better place... And don worry Linus, Linux will take over the desktop world one disgruntled and fed-up windows user at the time....
49:27 good man for standing up for yourself, and everyone else too! Too many big companies just don't care in situations like this.
11:14 wrote machine code by hand... holy shit
Look up how Roller Coaster Tycoon was programmed. It will blow your mind.
That shit blew my mind too.
Carter Cole We all did that back in the 80's. On cpu's like 6502, 680xx etc. The instruction set's was considerable smaller than on later cpu's, so it looks more impressing that it actually is :). Another thing was that routines often had to be cycle exact, so in addition to type in the OP codes we often had to know how many cycles the cpu used to perform each instruction.
is it like writing assembly?
It is assembly code. Just instead of typing the assembly mnemonics you typed their opcode values instead. After you've typed them hundreds or even thousands times you know them pretty well. Before there came any good assembler we just typed the opcodes in a monitor, directly into the memory. No memory allocations etc. back then. Just hardcore, no relocatable, code :D
this was one hell of a video with last few minutes being the best
The success open source programming is one of the best arguments for Anarchism as a political philosophy.
IKR ?
like, I know Stallman is sometimes full of crap, but DAMN, I always felt like there's more to open source than just voluntary cooperative development ... it's something that I can not put into words, it's ungraspable, but it's there, and you know the feeling, and it's AWESOME
0:30:26 If you were to do Linux again what license would you choose?
0:32:12 Do you think Linux is in good hands - if you decide to not touch the computer it would still go on? ("Hit by bus scenario - Who will take over?")
0:35:11 Although you are a technical person and interested in [OS] programming and not interested in other areas, UI, etc. Whatever you say influences a lot of other areas. How do you feel about your influences in those other areas you are not interested in?
NVIDIA! ╭∩╮ (o>_
Nvida makes .ko, and we need .so, they liberate the .ko to edit, emacs or txt... I stoped to try three years ago, but dont finished (so im finish the upgrade of machine, now i will try to put on again to retake the task - i had more than one, but work hard in x86-64 pentium D extreme, nvidia 5.1...) So with this machine nvidia and adobe cannot forbide the acces by motherboard contracts. I already wrote fglrx, skrmish, and one more .dll.
2 or 3 years on, yeah, I'd say the raspberry Pi is successful.
Raspberry Pee Eye
His thoughts on hardware, the 3rd iteration of the pi is by far the best of the 3 so far (for full size releases I know they had some mini ones as well)
Now in 2019 I had to giggle as I heard that, the Raspberry Pi iterations are wildly successful. I bought my first Raspi in 2011.
@@Tschudenizer I burst out laughing! Haha. What a legend...
Yeah?
I swear, Linus gets more attractive as he gets older.
Pervert.
OKAY I NOTICED THAT TOO
@@folksurvival Found the Insecure beta. Why are _only_ women allowed to say men are attractive?
You DO realize that saying a man is attractive is INDEPENDENT of your sexual orientation, right? I can acknowledge that lots of men are good looking -- there is no way in hell that I would want to sleep with them though.
@@MichaelPohoreski Lay off the soy.
@@folksurvival Grow the fuck up.
He doesn’t sugarcoat his answers. Honest, straight answers. By some people standards he would seem weird or arrogant.
40:26 Microsoft is lying ... they are full of sh!t hahahaha
1:01:29 thumb up!
interesting points:
1. there's no plan in Linus open project, it just spontaneously works.
2. we have many friends, but only around 10 people we trust in certain area. and they have their trust list. like a tree structure.
0:27
Hear that sound? It’s the sound of Windows!
😂
Words of Inspiration from "The Man Himself".....studying to become a Linux SysAdmin....will always use this operating system, ditched Microsoft in 2002....never looked back (Fedora...ROCKS!...LoL!)\
Rock On Mr. Torvalds....Rock on.
"people who get offended should be offended" awesome closing
So so good, I can't even begin to describe. Thank you Linus and thank you Aalto for hosting this. Best thing I've seen in 2019
40:25 why Linux is one of the greatest ever
Powerful and moving, insightful talk. Thank you !
The professor/host strikes me as apathetic to Linus. Linus is an interesting guy. Linus, thanks for the contributions to linux. Don't know who wrote the GNU tools grep/awk but they are a DREAM for data analysis.
fordfiveohh Stallman and co at the GNU project wrote grep
Outside of 'flipping the bird' to Nvida, Linus makes many good comments about why Open Source solutions should really be considered for development projects. Take code to the next level by adding in your secret sauce, leverage the existing community, and sharing your findings back to the community to help others out from your own experience.
Also thanks to progress made with HTML5 we shall soon say adobe FU!
We still have PDFs to deal with... lol
@@cldream still?
@@cldream PDFs can be opened in chrome and other browsers today without any adobe software. So: Adobe, FU! :D
YEEEAH, and while Affinity is actually putting out way better deals than Adobe for their production software, that's another ADUBE, F U!
I mean there'll always be those hipsters that rafuse to use anything but CS6, but for newer photographers, Affinity is actually a way better deal
and, of course, there's also one of THE BEST open source projects ever, and THE BEST PROGRAM IN THE WORLD(fite me): BLENDER
Blender is singlehandedly taking on both Adobe and Autodesk, and as of version 2.8 they've unofficially wiped the floor with Autodesk
isnt adobe a whole ass company
Watch it all the way to 1:00:30. In the end an nVidia employee has questions. He is really humble and many people know who he works for (people are laughing).
"I like offending people because I think people who get offended *should* be offended"
46:05 the saying he's requesting is
*_The nail that sticks out, gets hammered down_*
Its a Chinese saying & ideology.
not only china, here in Germany we have similär saying....
25:55 first you get the ChromeBook, then you get the pre-installs, then you get the desktop dominance
I think he may be considered as the worthy successor of Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie whom he says he‘s an admirer. For Linux of course, but a lot more obviously for git, which is, as he says, his very own creation. He just revolutionized source code management in a so elegant manner (from his experience in filesystem development afaik), which has been adopted so widely and so astonishingly fast.
Best software developer for the 21e century in my opinion.
For last 7 years I've been huge fan boy of Steve Jobs but man o' man after watching this.. Linus Trovalds is my true inspiration.🙏❤️
My hero!. He is a kernel programmer (the real kind in the classic sense). Thanks to him, I have 3.2.0-26 on two machines. 2.6.35-14 MoneyComb Tablet. 2.6.29 Sony Phone. All of these I used daily!.
Linux kernel has to be the most used kernel on this planet by now.
Highly inspiring speak that made me proud to one of the IT crowd that actually knows all about issues he spoke about. Basically he is 100% right in doing what he does the way he does it, he has made a community of like minded people linked toward one of the most awesome ideas in the last few decades,and hopefully once the desktop is broken,and it starts to reign supreme over closeminded/codec stuff the mission goal of free will be reached.
When your linux distro installation breaks after you try to install nvidia proprietary driver:
(commenting from experience)
I've seen the problem with nVIDIA® firsthand, installing Ubuntu® on a rebuilt eMachines®/Acer® EL1210-09 with Shuttle® upgrade PSU and Asus® EN210/DI/512MD3 upgrade VDA - the LinUX Kernel Project had to reverse-engineer the nVIDIA® MCP78S drivers for Microsoft® Windows® NT™ just to get critical information needed for writing drivers, and the X Organization still couldn't support the GeForce® 210, as of 2012.
23:45 - "Why is Linux not competitive on desktop?"
I'd love to see an OS like Zorin OS (which I use daily) or Linux Mint become mainstream. It would be great to see them running on computers out in the wild.
The last 3 minutes are priceless... Linus is an awesome dude
20:11 Is Linus referring to the ideas of Richard Stallman?
59:14 i think this is really powerful advice he is giving here
ok so nvidia , apple & microsoft disliked the video :P i am wandering who else :P
jhon doe for sure did
@@bahaaeldin2656 lmao yeah
You thought you came here for 49:57, but you had no idea that 1:00:56 existed, or that the best part is actually 1:01:21.
Regarding the single kernel fits all, in a sense Solaris has (or might I say had?) it's approach for sparc/x86 to some extent.
Service = Environment (Knowledge Management - Sophia - Resource(%) - Studies & Work experience) + Rate(process - priority - constraints)
[Innovative concept of the rights management] (activities or 360 evolution)
“I think people who get offended should get offended” -Linus
"There's a Finnish saying that you should not stand up because you get cut down."
He might have meant the Dutch saying, which is "don't grow above ground level, or you will be mowed down".
Thank you linus..... for creating linux
I installed Linux Mint 13 to three laptops during Christmas period because in all cases Windows 7 was in terrible stage. Owners of these laptops are now happy new Linux users.
"Microsoft... ...They're full of shit."
Favorite quote so far
Did you miss the Nvidia part?
Entrepreneur/Entrepreneurship - a person who organizes and manages any enterprise, especially a business, usually with considerable initiative and risk.
27:19 Did that guy rip a fart while asking his question?
I think it was the girl on the right in the blue shirt. You could see her body move when the sound came and she slowly tried to hide away (probably from embarrassment). I love how it echoed throughout the room.
Hahah, it would have been amazing if it was a fart. But unfortunately that sound came directly from Linus himself while addressing the questioner's statement, it was more of an acknowldgement to the statement.
@@awesomeworstgamer It does sound like one.
That wasn't a fart lol. As The Awesome Worst Gamer said it came from Linus as an acknowledgement to the statement.
@@WigglyWings You literally just repeated The Awesome Worst Gamer. I read it the first time, and unless I suddenly forgot I don't need to have it repeated to me.
Very cool watching this in 2018 while using Kubuntu Desktop for 5 years and seeing many laptops coming with Ubuntu pre-installed in the Mall.
Linus: "I worked at Transmeta until they had a need to care about their customers, and then I couldn't take it any more, so I left".
This man felt it necessary to take a class on public speaking later on due to the criticism thrown his way for having a personality. way to go society.... I like old Linus!
49:56 "So NVidia, F You". -Other Linus sent me.
the video actually starts at 4:37
(the first 4 minutes are boring as NVIDIA)
I love it for desktop. It fixes my bootloaders. Recovers my passwords on windows if I forget. it also allows me to have a secure system :) If I ran a computer store I would install linux by default, only windows if they requested.
