Great changes in Ubuntu over the past two years

Two years ago, MarkShuttleworth decided to focus on promoting Ubuntu In the Ubuntu international community. Now it is very effective. Why? As we all know, Mark himself entered the cosmic space at his own expense to look down on all the human beings. His eyes were wide. He wants to do what he like and doesn't want to be a master of capital operations (actually a capital slave ). Frankly speaking, he wants to make Ubuntu a software product and use it as a "gift" for all humans ". Can he do this? This is a very challenging undertaking. You don't have to tease the circle.

As we all know, Mark himself entered the cosmic space at his own expense to look down on all the human beings. His eyes were wide. He wants to do what he like and doesn't want to be a master of capital operations (actually a capital slave ). Frankly speaking, he wants to make Ubuntu a software product and use it as a "gift" for all humans ". Can he do this? This is a very challenging undertaking.

There is no need to tease people. In the past two years, Mark's painstaking efforts have almost all been devoted to Ubuntu 12.04LTS, a "software boutique. As we all know, the biggest disadvantage of free software is the lack of large-scale effective hardware testing. To put it bluntly, free software is "Everything is OK" in a small scope. However, once it is applied to a large scale, problems gradually emerge and there are many bugs. It is easy to imagine that building "Software Quality" based on free software is definitely not a simple task. Mark and his development team are not afraid to carry back the "black box", are not afraid to be "Misunderstood", and are dedicated to practical work. The most typical case is the development of the Unity human-machine interface. Now it has been proved that the idea of Unity is actually very simple, but it is very difficult to implement it. The problem is that there are too many bugs in its "original foundation" Compiz hybrid window manager, and some bugs are very serious.

The road to high-quality software products is clear, and you must go through the "hybrid Window Manager" Compiz "and" zhuqiao ", similar to the" Tie lockbridge "on the Red Army crossing Dadu River ". Compiz's Spread is a new Spread window switch, instead of being "lost. How easy is it to talk about all this?

In fact, Mark is the chief architect of the new Unity man-machine interface. In the past two years, he has been named by many people because of the "many faults" in Unity. Now, it's finally come to life, and Unity is shining. Now, we can say that Ubuntu 12.04 LTS is finally saved, and Nark should smile.

Another point is that the introduction of HUD technology enables the fusion of AI and Linux, which is the "contribution" of the Ubuntu international development community to humans ". It turns out that HUD has been affected by the "big Bug" of the Compiz window manager, and its operation is limited. Now it has finally passed through. In general, the great changes that have taken place in Ubuntu over the past two years have been manifested in the maturity of the Unity human-machine interface and the smooth introduction of the HUD technology. Of course, there are also two major "Inventions" of UbuntuTv and Ubuntufor Android ".

Looking back at our country, Linux has lost its way forward in recent years. In the past few years, some people in China have argued that we should make a "domestic" Linux release. However, the biggest problem here is that the software correctness of "Made in China" Linux cannot be tested in hardware around the world, and there are many potential bugs, causing great risks for users to use it. As we all know, free software must deal with hardware frequently ("authenticate" it on it), and it is absolutely impossible to start Linux. We should be wise to develop our own Linux release version based on Ubuntu with little risk and no shame (that is, "Shame "). To be honest, the development of Linux localization is a stumbling block to our smooth development. We should say that we do not agree with Linux's "localization", and we do not mean that we are blindly promoting the software's "Foreign slaves ". There is no reason to look down upon Linux without making any money. Is it true that Linux cannot make money? None. It depends on how you did it. Today, the global Linux camp continues to grow. either in the "cloud center" of the Internet or in the mobile device field, or on a traditional personal computer desktop, Linux cannot be underestimated, the maturity of Ubuntu12.04 is a "proof ". We must dare to admit that we have fallen behind in the development of Linux in recent years.
