I've never been to Google IO, but I'd imagine that you see more Macs for presentations/sessions because they just work on the go. Working at a big tech company in the past, I had a beefy Linux workstation and a Thinkpad that

if you use secure boot, you cannot use hibernation under fedora (or any Linux, afaik) since there is no way to "seal" the hibernation image from modification by an attacker who could mount the swap on another OS where they have ro

Slow legislation is a feature rather than a bug. Less opportunity for reactionary laws based on emotion or a collective misunderstanding of events that we later regret. It's not a perfect deterrent, obviously, e.g. the Patriot Act

Given that Zawinski's Law of Software Envelopment [0] still seems to hold true, this all looks super powerful. What type of uses does the CLI have? Is it for triggering actions? One thing I think would be cool is if I could write a pr

Gentoo was the first distro I successfully installed and used long-term, and was probably how I learned as much as I did about Linux. Installing Gentoo was hard, and keeping it working was even harder, but the Gentoo Wiki was by far the bes
