Reminds me of someone who created a job site in order to get the best offers first.
Make something folks want, but keep the models with long-term, open-source drivers.
- PaulHoule 3y agoI developed an ancestor of YOShInOn, my smart RSS reader, to process large numbers of job applications. The first time I tried this I got a job in two weeks, the second time took a little longer. If I hadn't gotten a job when I did. I would have given myself a job removing scam job listings from "America's Job Bank."
- Joker_vD 3y agoIt's funny that rms started the whole Free Software movement and the GNU project because he was pissed with lousy printer drivers. Somehow, all that multi-decade effort didn't improve the printer drivers' quality in any significant way... and in retrospect it kinda feels strange that he thought it somehow would. Huh.
