| Mar 22, 2018 at 7:03 | comment | added | Ramhound | @Hashim I clearly know my opinion means absolutely nothing, however, I absolutely agree with Mokubai. You want us to speculate on what companies, will be willing to pay for, in the future to update what likely is their own code. Nobody will pay to update the Linux kernel or any package they can update themselves which only leaves places like Redhat or Oracle with a future problem (but not really due to their downstream support community) | |
| Mar 19, 2018 at 20:08 | comment | added | Hashim Aziz | @Mokubai I've already explained in considerable detail with the comments above yours why that part of the question is not at all subjective - I don't intend to reproduce those three comments again. It requires a knowledge of the subject matter to understand why it's not a subjective question nor asks for a subjective answer, which is why it's been received so badly on SU and exactly why I've asked for the question to be moved to SO, where there will be experts that are aware of what the question means and will also be able to answer it. | |
| Mar 19, 2018 at 8:00 | comment | added | Mokubai Mod | @Hashim you might have removed one of the questions that were subjective, but you have left a significant block that is still asking for conjecture in the centre of your question. You even bolded half of it which essentially says "this is the most important thing to me". That entire paragraph could do with removing. | |

...45-min lecture by one of the core Linux kernel developers). The only thing left to answer is which of the technical possibilities I've narrowed the question down to is actually the answer to my question. In any case, based on the reaction to this question so far, it's become clear to me that SU isn't the place for it. I see that there's already tags for both timet and year2038 on SO, so in that vein, I've flagged the question to be migrated there. Thank you for your help.

The only thing such details inform are my motivations; they have no bearing on the actual answer, which will be the exact same for anyone that's asking it. Anyone who understands the topic and/or who's done the research I have on it would know this, and would know that the answer is as technical and non-conjectural as it can be; it's an outcome definitively known by the experts who know the topic, as evidenced by its being alluded to in the many research materials I've looked at (including a... | |
| Mar 19, 2018 at 1:51 | comment | added | Hashim Aziz | I'll concede that the second question could be subjective, so I'll remove it, but it's frustrating that everyone has missed the point entirely regarding the crux of my question - asking what specific work said lucrative contracts will involve. I believe this is due to the fact that there's a very small percentage of SU users who can actually understand/answer the question, and therefore that those who have voted on it are basing their opinions on the terms I've used in it - terms which just happen to typically betray a subjective question. I regret including peripheral details like money... | |
