I have always found the economics of open-source software fascinating. There is so much useful stuff being made without economic compensation it seems! How is that possible? I would love to read an indepth and thoughtful analysis on the top

Can I put a counter-point? For certain highly technical roles, being curious about how to invert a b-tree is MUCH less important than actually being able to invert a b-tree! So the title of the article should clarify to whether the statemen

I feel I have done original research but in a more piecemeal way because I had a full time job. I also feel that I need to be given an opportunity even though I only have a master's degree
