"A very public and sometimes acrimonious dispute in the Debian ecosystem about upstart versus systemd has been settled in favour of systemd. Some go as far as to brand it a new era after the Linux civil war [Beware popups].
We also had an asksoylentnews question on what the fuzz was all about. But what can upstart contribute to systemd now the war is over, or will it simply be a technology that we remember fondly, but do not see any more in a few years time?"

Having tried to debug a windows 8 computer that was unable to run windows update because the BITS service would not start, I can say that I never once saw an error code with the definition printed next to it anywhere in any log. Plenty of "Service failed to start with error -1892447375" or "Last error code 0x8f338b71".
