I don't know C but I am interested in learning. What would be a good place to learn the steps of making an OS? I just want a bird's eye view right now, just to understand the moving parts. This will also help me in the future as a

Ok, thanks for clarifying. I wonder how all this is going to unfold in the next 3-5 years. Rereading 'Zero To One' makes me feel that Mark Zuckerberg is not going to make this an easy fight for anyone trying to limit Facebook.

I loved my week in the Bay Area. But...I prefer living around mountains and trees instead of that many people and buildings. Remote work is the way to go.

Very interesting thought. This is why I share things here, I always learn more from what other humans think. I am trying to understand how far political power can even go against a force this subtle and pervasive? This is not the 1990'

I used to if it was a girl I was talking to or while my friends traveled. I just don't care anymore. Posting stories and checking who saw it, seeing others is a time waster. I love my work, my hobbies, solitude, family, analog lifestyl

Snap is only on my phone because my phone storage fills up sometimes and I need space to save photos or videos. I don't look at anyone's stories anymore. The people I care about, I make time to hang out with them in person or call
