原来game这这如此重要

以前一直是装FreeBSD最小安装，因为感觉很多东西在服务器上根本用不到；又更有甚者，前几天甚至在考虑进一步精简系统，使其在服务器上安装尽可能少的文件（例如开发工具完全不安装）。结果今天发现了一个之前一直没有注意到的问题：game这个看似没用的distribution其实也还是蛮有用的，比如生成素数表，等等。

代发一则招聘启事

软件测试开发工程师(1人，工作地点：北京)

ftp.freebsdchina.org 故障 :-(

由于磁盘故障，ftp.freebsdchina.org 暂时无法提供服务了(初步估计是panic掉了)。更头疼的是，由于连续5年运行没有出过什么严重问题，这台机器在机房的位置恐怕也不太好找了。

sh与csh中的算符优先顺序

第一个脚本(1.sh)：
#!/bin/sh
echo test
exit 1

测试命令：./1.sh | grep test && echo 1

csh:
./1.sh | grep test && echo e
test

sh:
./1.sh | grep test && echo e

鲁迅：中国人失掉自信力了吗zz

从公开的文字上看起来：两年以前，我们总自夸着「地大物博」，是事实；不久就不再自夸了，只希望着国联，也是事实；现在是既不夸自己，也不信国联，改为一味求神拜佛，怀古伤今了——却也是事实。于是有人慨叹曰：中国人失掉自信力了。

如果单据这一点现象而论，自信其实是早就失掉了的。先前信「地」，信「物」，后来信「国联」，都没有相信过「自己」。假使这也算一种「信」，那也只能说中国人曾经有过「他信力」，自从对国联失望之后，便把这他信力都失掉了。

gdb helper for FreeBSD kernel

It seems that John Baldwin has published a debugging helper script for gdb, which is interesting to have a look at:

Maybe we can extend it to have some VM inspection function as well? :-)

搞定了Safari的中文显示

之前用Safari访问很多中文网页都有问题，今天端木同学帮忙看了一下，发现是默认语言顺序导致的问题。不过调整之后，Firefox又毛病了……不知道是否应该在里面装个FreeBSD，然后再到FreeBSD里面装个X？:P

The missing uptime explained

It seems that my box loses its uptime record after I have migrated it to the Yizhuang IDC. The two things are related, but technically speaking, they are not. Actually I have discovered gokeeper’s hosts losed their uptimes as well, but I did not know why before. Sometimes I thought that was because the Linksys switch we have used, but there are some evidence that it is not; also I have at a point doubted the Cisco devices were misconfigured or have some firewalling features, but that’s not the answell, either.

Updated less(1) in base system to 3.9.4

less is a very popular command line tool that is distributed with a lot of *nix distributions. Thanks goes to David Wolfskill (our postmaster) who helped the test.

The current plan is to MFC less(1) before 6.2-RELEASE’s freeze, but because the date is near, we may want to change the plan.

FreeBSD.org website reengineered

Today Hiroki Sato has committed the long waited www/ cleanup mega-patch. Key features:

• Localized sgml, xmls and xslts are moved into <lang>/share/sgml/.
• Duplicated stuff between English and localized versions are eliminated as much as possible.
• Switched to use a custom FreeBSD DTD for HTML.
