This standard is not for you. People here are missing the purpose of a standard. No matter the details, it serves as a standard way to brew and conduct tasting for tea traders and professionals. Nit picking whether this or that is fine but

Why are negative comments bad? I wouldn’t mind at all. Rudeness is not acceptable but people poking holes at your project is a good thing. People poked holes at Dropbox back in the day. Just take negative comments, grow a thick skin and mov

Programming language is more abstract than mere collection of glyphs. I am curious if the glyphs were replaced by English alphabet, what are the special aspects of this language?

I expect this story to hit Twitter and Elon will interject and restore faith in customers. In the end, nothing will be lost, PR game will end and Tesla will garner free goodwill through Elon as a proxy from this manufactured saga. It's

It might sound crazy but I am not willing to take risks with my personal data and managing it myself. I pay iCloud and Dropbox monthly so I don't need to manage my own data. I know its secure with Apple and Dropbox. To me privacy conce

Honesty is truth and we're working hard to discover it, fix it and engineer things well. If we don't confront truth in favor of hurting people, oh boy... the world is regressing faster than ever. This is how you get a snowflake or

This is the surefire way to create conflict where there could have been a peaceful resolution. Learning to tolerate and ignore is a blessing IMO. If it gets excessive and affect's people's lives, jobs, personal threats, yes - that

> But what purpose does that antagonism serve? It's a good question. I am not advocating this behavior, just trying to circumvent his rants and see them as comedy. Of course, the better choice is to not do this in the first place.

People still work with him and he is successful. From what I can see (I've never dealt with Linux community), people that work with him know what to ignore and what to listen to. Moreover, I guess I have a different way to deal with of

Curious - why do people get offended by Torvalds? If you know anything about the guy, his rants are a caricature. It's like going for a Tarantino movie and expecting no violence. You're going to get violence. And, it's going

This is a weird take. Just because you're going meta, does not invalidate that the internet has turned into a steaming pile of shit since last 10 years. It sounds pseudo-englightening without any substance. Ok, you've observed thi

Switzerland is an example of this and probably the reason they have not joined the EU. Just look at the quality of life, median salary, indices after indices, Switzerland comes ahead of EU in every measure.

If you’re living in Berlin, it didn’t matter what US date format was 20 years ago. You’re missing the point that the globe is far more connected due to the internet.

This feels like a distraction from what I was driving at. Whether it’s Intel, AMD, etc. any large company needs a lot of work to be done. You don’t need top engineers for that.

Sorry, I’m not sure if I follow your point? Basically, I was saying that top-engineers are irreplaceable but they need replaceable engineers to execute menial, boring, repetitive work. There is a lot of this to be done.

Ex-Intel perspective: There is also a lot of work that needs to be done at Intel which requires mediocre engineers by the thousands. Intel does pay well to their top engineers which climb up in the ranks. The engineer working on CAD, layout
