The headline is fine, but why are there Polish soldiers in the photo? Author, look closely. The photo shows several men in traditional Polish military uniforms.
One question. What for?
How do you manage to ask such the right questions?
You mean eggcellent?
Author, please draw more.

Of course, we developers like to optimize and patch source code all the time. If I am suddenly woken up at three in the morning, I will immediately open the lid of my laptop and start optimizing the code. That's our little developer secret.
Probably an innovative revelation of the concept of "bloat".

Linux is my primary OS. I have no experience with Windows. Therefore, I cannot compare Linux and BSD systems with Windows. When I started using Linux, it wasn't very functional, but I didn't want to pay money for something as glitchy as Windows was in 1998. But for my needs at the time, Linux was sufficient. The PC usage pattern in 1998 was a bit different from today's PC usage pattern. Mail, primitive messenger (IRC), primitive games. Torturous WEB. I'm back in the days when an html page would load within a couple minutes and I didn't consider that unusual. I remember times when I would spend all night downloading a 5 megabyte package. The Internet connection would glitch and break and the price of the connection was no fun for anyone. Then FreeBSD 5 came out, and after the glitches of Linux it was pure bliss. I even considered switching to this system completely, but unfortunately FreeBSD quickly began to lag behind the capabilities of desktop PCs and I had to abandon this idea. I could tell IT tales for a long time, but I will say that Linux became a digestible OS relatively recently, around 2015. I currently use OpenBSD and Fedora. I'm happy with all of them.

The origin of this photo is also easily found on the Internet. Google photo search tells us the following: this is the deportation of Ukrainians by the Polish army from Bialystok region, which after the Second World War went to Poland.
