When is collaboration irrelevant within a large organization? Your company uses Linux which is commendable.

Taking it one step further

Multiple team members being able to work on the same project at the same time

Can/do all your coworkers use git? Even the secretary and janitor?

Darwin enters the conversation, “Ah chem!”

(raises finger) (lowers finger) (moves onto a species that can configure their own network and printer)

China takes alot of crap from Western MSM. But the accusation that it suacks at IT, so much, would consider using WindowsOS is a low blow

Whenever see a Windows box i say, grandma gets a smartphone. Regardless who i’m talking to. Believe it!

govts print infinite money. All of us are working for free. Their fiat is credits for the company store.

If you think funding projects is bad then the response is to support lobbying project owners to put in malware until FOSS is publically funded.

All we have to do is verbally support it. And cheerlead when it occurs. We don’t actually have to actively do it. It’s a threat which is done in politics all the time.

Step 1: all software has to be open source

Step 2: governments, required by law, to fund FOSS projects in their tech stacks. Helped by organizations which trace project funding and lobbying to promote FOSS security by providing funding; a huge incentive to not insert malware

Step 3: coders are afforded dignity (UBI); given funds geared towards affording a maintenance team. Regardless of country of origin. Vital infrastructure is vital infrastructure. Talent is talent.

I support this move to Step 1

Where is the list of pauper gov’ts which force talent to get a job rather than be a talent and then maintain their projects with dignity!

Those jobs are mostly nonsense. Geared towards wasting our time building:

• yet another stupid web site

• yet another stupid smartphone app

• yet another stupid cloud base server instance

Cue reality as R&D vs actually getting products to market are two HUGELY different things

All 99.99999% of science PR, will never be heard from again.

Lets repeat this a few hundred more times. A clock and a gold fish are going to have a better trading records than you can ever hope for.

Any country the US sets up a pier near, will have no choice but to deal with the local government. In no universe, will that not be the case.

If not, that pier is Israeli territory! They can land troops there and just say, Thank you!. And there is not much the US could do.

So cooperation with Israel is key to making this precedent work. Might be quite the show watching the US try to do humble

No problem. Dump them into Libyan slave markets.

This will free up the pier for more able bodied workers, err i mean, refugees.

Think about beauty of it. The Barbary Pirates of North Africa were targeting US trade during Thomas Jefferson term in office. Forcing the formation of the US Navy.

The US can get back to being ol’ friends with them.

And come back history wise full circle

Can see the Egyptian POV.

These refugees previously were politically destabilizing Egypt from within. They don’t want a repeat of that.

The US is a 3rd party. If Israel deported them it would be a war crime. If the US accepts them onto that pier, it’s not.

Solves Egypt and Israel mutual problem.

The US could then push them into Canada. If anything bad happened there, it would be an improvement over the status quo.
