Point it out explicitly in your resume. Don’t expect them to figure out your github activity on their own.

It’s definitely better to have open source experience than no experience.

I believe he was comparing it to a similar broadband grant in a comidic fashion

Same

Their user base is both the problem and the value they provide. The problem can be mitigated if they don’t join as just one massive instance. They need to be federated within themselves as well.

Would’ve never expected this read to be so interesting.

I doubt they run on windows tbh. If they take issue with with monolithic design of Linux, then windows would be an even bigger problem.

Also, most of the devices in question are probably small controllers, incapable of running windows. (Microsoft are struggling to run it on arm so…)

ELISA (Enabling Linux in Safety Applications) Project announced that Boeing has joined as a Premier member, marking its commitment to Linux and its effective use in safety critical applications.

Regarding section 1, won’t you still get the conflicts when pushing to remote (or pulling from it)?

Some thinkpads have official support for Ubuntu by the manufacturer (lenovo), which means battery optimizations out of the box, amongst other things. Might be relevant for your laptop.

That’s not being pretentious, that’s being blunt. I personally as a dev, appreciate that.

If you think the code can be improved you should say that, and exactly why that’s the case. When you’re mistaken you should be able to take the criticism.

Your mission as a dev is to write the ideal code, and being overly polite can stand in the way of that.

He was probably working with bytes and not individual bits, but yeah. He basically wrote executables directly (to my understanding).
