Listen to this guy, OP. $5 says you will not be allowed to use brew.sh and have to install a limited selection of software from the companies repository.

Clickbait title which makes no sense.

Why false? Especially if you have signed NDA. There are certain confidential documents you can only access as an employee at work, like the Airplay protocol. If you work for Apple, memorize the standard, then develop an app for Android which casts audio to Homepod, you’re going to get sued.

You’re still liable if you’ve used knowledge gained at work. The safest way is to let your employer sign off every release you want to make public.

And it was one of the few distros who supports running without systemd. I do need the freedom to use whichever init system I prefer. Some let me do it with just a few lines of configs, some leave their system open enough to work with other init systems, and some are so hard-coded to allow only systemd, and fuck those, BTW.

Do you consider Postman (and such) a programming language?

What’s the most basic principle of IT?

But why was it there in the first place? Who asked for it?

If you fork, you’re gonna have children. Those children will slowly eat up your memory. It’s time to hang them up. Shut their pipes. Sometimes they refuse to die, like cats. Control Cat won’t work. That’s where you want to kill them 9 times.

Please be aware that Google Docs the software is not the same with all those services running at Google’s servers.

You can steal Google Docs’ source code and run it on your own device, but somehow it won’t work because it depends on reliable connection to Google’s infrastructure. But anyway, that’s the part of it where you can seek for open source alternative.

Mentions like Libre Office and the like is exactly that.

To replicate all Google Docs offers you, you need some rich and generous millionaires hosting a swarm of servers for you, for online documents, sharing to friends, collaboration and stuff. If you are looking for “open source” alternative for this, you are practically asking for free money. You either pay for it, or host it yourself. There’s no free lunch.

Why did the finger-counting contest end in a tie?
Because everyone could only count on themselves!

Why did the mathematician lose the finger-counting contest?
Because he kept trying to carry the one!

I was judging a finger-counting contest, and it was incredibly close.
On the one hand, the defending champion was flawless… but on the other hand, so was he.

Why did the T-Rex get disqualified from the finger-counting contest?
Because he kept coming up short

Here’s one for you:
Why was Yubaba (from Spirited Away) disqualified from the finger-counting contest?
Because she kept adding ten more fingers halfway through!
(For context: Yubaba is a witch who magically grows extra hands with 10 fingers each when counting money. She’d definitely have an unfair advantage! 😄)

Here’s a fresh one for you:
Why did the concert pianist lose the finger-counting contest?
Because they kept insisting that a “perfect 10” should involve scales!
(Alternatively, playing on the unexpected twist…)
Why did the robot win the finger-counting contest?
Because it kept saying, “This is too easy—I’m counting in binary!”
Hope that gives you a chuckle! 😄
