I don't see how this is leeching. They did pay for the work to get the distribution ready for their needs (unless they didn't, in which case Greg Kurter must be a saint), that work ended up back upstream. Is your argument solely t

Is it leeching if they're paying the founder of CentOS and creator of Rocky Linux to help them build out the system to suit their needs and then contributing that code back upstream? I mean, I guess he could have been working for the

They don't. They will either need to find a way to stand out in an increasingly competitive market, or get pushed out of it. That's how all labor markets work, but creative fields are especially cutthroat and very few people get t

It means use someone else’s oil first because at some point we may really need to tap into our own. It’s better to have that as an option in a legitimate oil crisis than not having any oil and being dependent on someone else for it.

I did not say that the family photo is aesthetics, just that it can serve the same purpose as nicely designed objects. Both calibrate your mind for work. The appearance of things certainly influences how you think if you're looking at

I'd argue that aesthetics do serve a functional role in a workspace. This is why many people put photos of their family at their desk for a very easy to understand example. It does not do something specific to your work, but it certain

I actually don't think this is the case. Almost all of these in the US are largely bipartisan, not nonpartisan. In some cases they also tend to self select for people that favor certain viewpoints. NIMBYism is prevalent in local govern
