FreeBSD 5.3 is “stable” but not production-ready: Rather an odd article, complains about AMD64 support and Linux binary support. Overall I’d describe this article as very shallow, at best.

Benchmark Comparison of NetBSD 2.0 and FreeBSD 5.3: All of the numbers are in NetBSD’s favor. It would be interesting to see these tests done on an SMP system.

Understanding NetBSD 2.0’s new technology: The 2.0 release brings many new features to NetBSD.

PostgreSQL Performance: Nice example of how PostgreSQL decided when to use an index versus a sequential scan for Dave’s test data.

SSHKeychain: SSH key management for Mac OS X.

Betting a Billion: Cringely’s predications for 2005.

Stylegala, Web Design Tomorrow: Web design resources (CSS, etc).

Unread tabs Firefox extension (otherwise known as the simplest extension ever): This could be handy. Wouldn’t mind seeing Safari offer something like it (via Keith).

OpenVPN GUI for Windows: Another Windows front end for OpenVPN (this one doesn’t require .NET though).

PostFAQ – an Unofficial PostgreSQL FAQ Addendum: Just in case the PostgreSQL docs don’t cover what you’re looking for.
