I think it should be: “Software that is yours”
Overall, I think more focus should be put on consolidating similar projects.
Do we really need 6 different window managers that follow the same design logic?
Do we really need each major distro to have its own package manager?
How many image and PDF viewers do we need? How many music players?
Can we convince Ubuntu that no one wants snaps and they are wasting developer resources.
The freed up capacity should be focused on better windows app compatibility. Something akin to Valve’s push in gaming.
Intel started running into trouble 15 years ago when they appointed CFO leadership as CEOs. They eroded 20 years of engineering leadership for the sake of “stakeholder value”. They also destroyed the company culture that made them successful and replaced it with MBA corporate BS.
You can’t rebuild that overnight. You basically need to start over.
Or they are gearing up to sell, so they pull this stunt to make their subscription numbers look better, before the cancellations start rolling in.
For me the main difference is Linux only does something when I ask it to.
Windows does whatever Microsoft wants it to do.
Both have major usability issues. But Linux gets a higher tolerance level, because of higher trust levels.
The problem is the bulk of it is going to Nvidia.
Market shows that the market buys into hype, not value.
You can blame his leadership who did not authorise the additional time and cost for sandbox testing.
That is true. The issue is that because there are so many permission escalation issues in windows, that many anti malware products must run as kernel drivers.
An OS should not have to require a 3rd party driver for security.
Microsoft should be writing that driver as an OS component. Drivers should be restricted for taking to hardware.
That’s because cloudstrike likely has significantly worse leadership compared to your company.
They have a massive business development budget though.
It’s likely not an intern’s fault. Likely a C suite not authorizing the testing infrastructures requested by the developers and sysops people.
It’s outside the primary failure domain.
Because the windows OS is inherently insecure with lots of permission elevation opportunities.
We also backup our bitlocker keys with our RMM solution for this very reason.
Valve is an excellent example of a sustainable tech company. It’s not on the growth at any cost, boom and bust cycle
Good bot.
I think this strategy makes sense, if you do an overall push to have all software sources verified. Knowing users, a simple warning that an app is unverified rarely affects their behaviour. You need to hide the app, to encourage app developers to get verified for it to work. Users ideally should be able to trust by default, because we can’t trust them to know any better.
Exactly. Linux mint is one of the few distros that really follow through that their users may not be proficient.
It’s why it’s my business distro of choice.
I don’t have much of a problem with the small open source projects that are generally very good at filling gaps or addressing niches.
I think most of the waste is coming for the development done by the large open source houses. The canonical and red hats of the world. They should stick to what they are doing well, which is the foundational stuff.
