  • The “I cannot have faith…” sentence. It makes it feel like a reddit message.

    I would have worded it more factually without questioning the future of the company and motivation of the employees by calling them “lazy”.

    Devin informed me that Windows laptops are mandatory and that there no exceptions. Unfortunately, this does not align with my requirements stated during the interview process: Linux or Mac are my operating systems of choice. Please consider informing future candidates of the tools they will be provided earlier in the process.

    The assumption being made here is that the person actually stated their GO/NO-GO preferences during the process. Otherwise it is a waste of everybody’s time to leave something so important to the day of signing.

















  • This article again. Drew Devault is a shitstirrer that lives from drama. Painting Louis Rossmann as a nazi, white supremacist, or monarchy supporter is just misinformation and I’d go as far to say that it’s slander. He has thousands of videos trying to hold the state accountable, is nearly rabidly pro-privacy and pro consumer rights, and rails on and on about how shitty big tech companies are that have their way with their consumers.

    I happen to agree with FUTO: the opensource licenses are not that great. Open source developers should get paid and if that means the definition of opensource has to evolve, so be it.

    We should stop treating the opensource definition like gospel and quoting it as if it were a religious text. We should think for ourselves, not let our thoughts be dictated to us and then just go “this person said it, so they are right”.

    FUTO funds great software. If that came out of the pocket of Hitler, Stalin, or Mao, I’d be happy ad it means less money going to whatever evil main endeavors they have. If a monarchist spends his fortune on opensource instead of raising a monarchy, fucking good. Don’t stop him. Demand he spends more.
