Biography

Oskar August Henrik Vilhelm Hesselman was born in Stockholm, Sweden. His parents were factory owner Bror August Hesselman and Marie Louise Hesselman, née Åberg. He was the brother of civil engineer Jonas Hesselman (1877–1957) and linguist Bengt Hesselman(1875–1952). [1] [2]

In 1898, he participated as an assistant botanist in the expedition on the ship Antarctic led by Arctic explorer Alfred Gabriel Nathorst (1850–1921) to Bear Island, Svalbard and Kong Karls Land.[3]

Hesselman earned his Ph.D. at Uppsala University and was an associate professor of botany at Stockholm University. From 1912, he was a professor for forest biology at the Swedish Forest Research Institute (Statens skogsförsöksanstalt), today the Department of Forest Research at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences at Uppsala, which he presided from 1925 to 1939. Hesselman was secretary at the Second International Agrogeological Conference in Stockholm in 1910, He was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Agriculture in 1913, and of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1928.

gollark: Arch is largely based on binary packages. Packages target x86-64 microprocessors to assist performance on modern hardware. A ports/ebuild-like system is also provided for automated source compilation, known as the Arch Build System. Arch Linux focuses on simplicity of design, meaning that the main focus involves creating an environment that is straightforward and relatively easy for the user to understand directly, rather than providing polished point-and-click style management tools — the package manager, for example, does not have an official graphical front-end. This is largely achieved by encouraging the use of succinctly commented, clean configuration files that are arranged for quick access and editing. This has earned it a reputation as a distribution for "advanced users" who are willing to use the command line. The Arch Linux website supplies ISO images that can be run from CD or USB. After a user partitions and formats their drive, a simple command line script (pacstrap) is used to install the base system. The installation of additional packages which are not part of the base system (for example, desktop environments), can be done with either pacstrap, or Pacman after booting (or chrooting) into the new installation.
gollark: On March 2021, Arch Linux developers were thinking of porting Arch Linux packages to x86_64-v3. x86-64-v3 roughly correlates to Intel Haswell era of processors.
gollark: The migration to systemd as its init system started in August 2012, and it became the default on new installations in October 2012. It replaced the SysV-style init system, used since the distribution inception. On 24 February 2020, Aaron Griffin announced that due to his limited involvement with the project, he would, after a voting period, transfer control of the project to Levente Polyak. This change also led to a new 2-year term period being added to the Project Leader position. The end of i686 support was announced in January 2017, with the February 2017 ISO being the last one including i686 and making the architecture unsupported in November 2017. Since then, the community derivative Arch Linux 32 can be used for i686 hardware.
gollark: Vinet led Arch Linux until 1 October 2007, when he stepped down due to lack of time, transferring control of the project to Aaron Griffin.
gollark: Originally only for 32-bit x86 CPUs, the first x86_64 installation ISO was released in April 2006.
