I'm convinced most of these people are flat out lying to sell seminars because if he was really that good he'd just keep doing it and making his millions there.

What a very oddly specific and suspicious thing to have anything at all to say about.

The workplace, or at least career progression, is like 50% politics lol. Google is no different.

I'm so annoyed we're here 25 years from Google's founding, catering to them with the euphemism "SEO" rather than doing what's best for the web and for humanity and expecting Google, the Search Engine company, to improve its capacity to search optimally.

Well when you realize we treat school as glorified babysitting and not just education, part of the reason becomes more obvious. Parents work 40 hours so we need kids in school roughly that length of time. Especially when both parents have to work to afford to live.

We need to uplift a lot about the entire system for it to work.

A GUI makes simple things simple.

A shell makes hard things possible.

Ah yes, the famous Dictator For A Day Program where the guy who wants to be a dictator famously chooses to not use his powers to install himself for life.

It's probably a whole set of bots and the responses to "this needs to be a coffee mug" are some other account saying "I found one!" and that's the whole point of the comment chain. Someone has a crappy mug to sell and constructs scenarios that seem natural ish to introduce it.

I'm not saying it doesn't suck for this person, but product market fit is a thing for open source too. If people need it they'll use it and contribute until something better comes along. If not, your idea wasn't the one. That doesn't mean it's not possible. Nearly my whole life runs on open source software, so it's pretty clearly sustainable.

over the years, using "open source" has become an excuse to avoid paying for software

Um. Yes. And to be blunt: obviously. And in return, I give away software I create for free whether people need it or not, and try to give back in the form of contributions too. But I've never once given up my day job for it. Would that be nice? Maybe. But open source software is more frequently sustained by passionate people using and expanding it for their own projects and not by expecting people to pay you for your efforts when you're likely not paying (nodejs, github, ahem) for the software you're building it on anyway.

I looked her up. I'm pretty sure this is satire judging from the comedic nature of most of her posts.

Maybe it's simply because he's not the sitting president and his detail is much smaller? I'm not at all familiar with the way FPOTUS security is run but I do believe I remember they don't get anywhere near the resources POTUS gets. They're also not often running for reelection so this seems like an increased risk, reduced resources situation.

Taxes have that feature too, sadly. No system is perfect.
