There is a good support for sndio in the FreeBSD ports tree as well. Albeit hidden behind the SNDIO build time option. It was quite the ride to get it to that point :-)

There are also now some sndio backends out there for applications not in the OpenBSD ports tree like Cava, shairport-sync, and Kodi.

FreeBSD's yes has just been updated because of this.

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/commit/1d61762ca37c20ab6f...

It's about twice as fast as GNU yes now on my FreeBSD system here.

That's because you're using cat and a pipe. Try this instead:

  pv > /dev/null < /dev/zero

Bad example :)

Most simple uses of lambda like this can be substituted with functions from the operator module:

  import operator

  formulas = {
    'sum': operator.add,
    'subst': operator.sub,
    'mult': operator.mul,
    'pow': operator.pow
  }

src/gnu already has Perl in it, which isn't a GNU project or under the GPL either.

I realize I'm replying to a 2 weeks old comment, so nobody will read this ever, but from your list sndio supports: streaming audio over a network, user-land mixing of audio sources, mixing of multiple audio streams at the same time, and per application volume settings.

> Per application input/output source settings

No, but the input/output device is selectable per application via the AUDIODEVICE environment variable.

> bluetooth audio devices

OpenBSD has no bluetooth support, so no. I'm also wondering why the kernel wouldn't create audio devices from these that the userland daemon can then just transparently use? Does an audio daemon need special support for bluetooth audio devices?

The sndio daemon has more features. Give the man page a read if you're interested: http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man8/sndiod.8

It's from the author of miniKanren on which LogicJS is based.

There are implementations for a lot of other languages (other JS implementation too) on

Yes, it has V4L/DVB support via the multimedia/webcamd port/package, which is essentially a user space port of Linux' V4L/DVB drivers.

No, we are not. :-( For what it's worth I just tried to answer your question on the forums.

You can also display a list of all packages in the repository with

    pkg search -g '*' | less

Better pipe it to less because there are over 25000 packages.

NetBSD has had support for ASLR since 2009 (NetBSD 5.0), but they only enabled it recently by default: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2016/04/10/msg0...

They did. pkg has gotten a lot better the past 3 years.
