Usually, that would be stereotyping via judging by the name / surname of an individual which is just as bad as any sort of racial prejudice in an interview which I have to be frank, really is despicable and unnecessary in the hiring pr

Interesting that this company IPO'd recently as 'NKLA'. Unlikely but imagine a Tesla partnership for electric trucks, naming it Nikola Telsa Trucks.

On the subject of 'privacy issues' it's slightly ironic that a privacy issue in this document is that it's a Google document, which can deanonymize anyone looking at it if they are signed in to a Google account. (Or even

> You assume contributing via mailing lists is hard, which it is not. Well, some OS projects optimise for attracting newcomers whereas some do not and clearly the Linux kernel project doesn't, hence the higher barriers for entry and

Well done. But here's the actual thing: There will always be those who don't like using the mailing lists for back and forth reviews and the same goes for GitHub (I use both anyway and have a self-hosted community GitLab and cgit)

Just read all my posts again and then you will realise that you constructed a strawman argument and addressed a point I never said. No-one directly said that beginners should be contributing to the Linux kernel when I actually said that beg

I'm not sure why you think I have a problem with mailing lists or not (I regularly use them myself), when the point of this discussion is about starting points for interested folks in Linux kernel or OS development in general. I just m

I pretty much agree with this. For example, the BSD Handbook and documentation is the point of call for a newbie entering into the community and the codebase is much more readable than the Linux kernel. Last time I checked, the kernel-newbi

There would be no surprise to this since the Win32 GUI APIs were created at a time when C++0x was widely used compared to what you see with APIs created in C++11 and onwards. I guess the latter is the case for SerenityOS and other OSes with

I've heard about SerenityOS from the videos on YouTube and I'm impressed over its 90's GUI and some of the new OSes that have their own desktop environments and have the case for integration rather than a separate kernel + de
