I have actually had this asked of me. It was at a finance info-tech security company in the USA. The guy who was interviewing me was a total as *le and I regret not just walking out on him. He also asked me several questions which were pro

Oh boy, am I triggered! I recently spent some time looking for a new job and went through a number of terrible interviews that involved psychological behavioral assessment tests. I don't think it was a coincidence that all of the reall

In years past, I had written two reviews for employers on Glassdoor. One was positive, and it remains. The negative review was removed. I don't bother writing any reviews or using Glassdoor anymore.

I can speak from experience that some of the LEDE/OpenWRT core people are fairly toxic at times. John Crispin in particular is known to go autistic on you if you top-post on one of his mailing lists instead of bottom-post. He's a

This is correct. LEDE is where all the devs and action went. OpenWRT is now just two or three people who were holding the old project hostage and may agree for LEDE to take over the name. If there is a re-merge, it's going to be the LE

I follow OpenWRT/LEDE fairly closely and I agree that these bullet points are most likely the outcomes. Basically, in a sentence, LEDE may be allowed to take over management of the OpenWRT assets. It's not done yet though. I would

+1 Not just a Debian base. When you SSH into them, they drop you right into a bash shell! Surprisingly open in that respect. I hear there have been some GPL disputes when it comes to source code though.

This comment is correct. Atheros was a long-time Linux/OSS friendly-ish vendor, where Marvell isn't. Marvell has been making some positive moves, but they are still GPL violators and don't work with the community like QCA doe

I am very sympathetic to your comment. The old OpenWRT and new LEDE did a really poor job of end-user interaction. There wasn't a list of recomended models which was kept updated. The regular documentation was often out of date. The fo

All of the links here on the issue are good. My personal take on the split is like this: First off, OpenWRT as a project was very sick before the split. There was development going on with core stuff and bug fixes, but a lot of things were

The first thing you need to know is that the OpenWRT project is basically dead and that 95+% of the developers went over to the LEDE Project. However, LEDE has not yet published a stable release yet. You can get nightly builds that are in p

Wow. Christian Rebischke's response to this reasonable, mild-mannered, bug report, is unbelievably hostile. Now he's out on Twitter describing the bug as a "hate-report". With any hope, a future employer will find this,
