\"FreeBSD\" Ever since Kyung got me sign up<\/a> for Linode<\/a>, my love affairs with Linux has been steady. At first it was Fedora<\/a>, then came Slackware<\/a>, then boldly, I tried the hottest newcomer, Gentoo<\/a>. It was the fun days of using a VPS to reinstall pretty much anything at any time with just 10 minutes or less. At the end, I settled with Slackware before moving on to ServerBeach<\/a> for a dedicated server running Debian<\/a>.<\/p>\n

All is well with Linux, but then my cousin, Alex<\/a>, started planting ideas about FreeBSD<\/a> in my head (how it’s even closer to a true Unix system and that some of the most popular sites are powered by FreeBSD). At my last job interview with Vicarious Visions<\/a>, I learned that a lot of their servers are also running on FreeBSD, and plus Mac OSX’s Darwin<\/a> is based on FreeBSD anyway, I thought it’d worth my time to look into it.<\/p>\n

Ever since I lost my job in January, I have had some time in my hands to educate myself on some stuff. But I feel like no matter how much I teach myself, the knowledge is not quite as valuable as if it was applied to realproblems in the field. Hopefully whatever I learned from FreeBSD will help me land my next job, whatever that may be.<\/p>\n

I did a quick and dirty install (easier than Slackware, not quite near Fedora’s ease of use though). We’ll see what happens. <\/p>\n
