MediaGoblin:: GNU MediaGoblin nsquared Fellowship interview with Michiel de Jong « Fellowship Interviews Fellowship interview with Michiel de Jong Michiel de Jong Michiel de Jong has worked as a programmer, researcher and sysadmin in Amsterdam, Oxford, London and Madrid, where he ended up as a scalability engineer for Spain’s national social network Tuenti. Chris Woolfrey: Would you like to explain the Unhosted project in your own words? Michiel de Jong: There are several ways you could explain it; my favourite angle is the software freedom angle. For installed software, both desktop and server, that view used to be accurate: if you controlled the source code you had software freedom. It’s absurd that hosted software makes you surrender your data to the author of the application in question, but it’s what happens. “Software freedom requires code-freedom plus data-freedom” In the shift from local applications to hosted applications software freedom got left behind. The Unhosted project aims to invent and promote a way to fix these issues. CW: How does Unhosted achieve this?
Mirror: The Coming War: ARM versus x86 » Van's Hardware Journal Note: This report was originally published at Bright Side of News* on April 8, 2010. After their server crashed, BSN* has not yet been able to recover the article after several weeks. We are reposting the report here to serve as a mirror of the original article. There are likely to be minor editing differences with the BSN* article. Note 2: Only a month or two after it was published, a detailed report that I wrote was wiped out during a BrightSideOfNews* hard drive crash. It took a little while and cost BSN* a lot of money to recover the data on the hard drive, but that report is now back up and can be read here. I’m currently working on a followup to that bit of analysis that will include even more hardware than the initial report. The computing landscape is changing rapidly and the war between x86 and ARM microprocessors is now underway. Introduction In this report we will discuss the emerging competition between ARM and x86 microprocessors. The Coming War: ARM versus x86 We thank C.J.
