Anything Constructive?
Ok Ok enough. DLL, load and go, dynamic loads, etc ect etc are older as a concept and a reality than many of the readers of this column. So, let us stop bashing and give consructive critism.

It now seems that the Linux flaws are coming to the fore. As long as software is under the rader, no issues. The minute it looks like a target of opportunity, then it is hit. That applies to every OS I have ever seen. And at 57, with over 30 years in the business, I have seen many.

The issues we must concern outrselves with today relate to security, efficency (profitablity), and governance. So, can everyone use that 'pair-of-dimes' to funnel their technical energy?
