ur between 27-33 susp dish. I'm going to guess that N.B.S.D. is under 40. The pdp thing was a joke. Because I went to a third rate engineering school I did get to do that on a pdp-8 dev board though in intro to comp sci. in tyool 2002. architecture was taught w/ 68ks made the year I was born. Interfacing was 68hc11. What can I say, I got a scholarship, lived with my parents, and graduated debt free.

Most of us are within ten years of each other, but poo poo changed a lot depending on if you graduated H.S. in 1995 vs. 2005.

Also, did you graduate early or something? Or did you not bother with a CS degree? Re my shock, this is why I posted the thread about tech interviews being behind screens.

suspicious dish is obviously a smart dude he just holds some really bad opinions about user interfaces. and, implicitly, beliefs about users. when you're old, or you have to teach olds, you'll understand: change is intrinsically bad. this doesn't mean you can't change anything. it does mean that the benefits to current users have to massively outweigh the costs. and that's a really hard case to make for user interfaces Notorious b.s.d. fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Mar 3, 2015 |

I got hired at red hat straight out of high school as a result of my free time open source work. Mostly because by chance, at the time, I was 15 minutes away from the US red hat engineering offices. An internship eventually turned into a full time position and then eventually I got a bit tired and moved to Endless, where one been since. Otherwise, I was a fairly bad student who never did his homework and wasted all of it programming or on video games

Notorious b.s.d. posted:suspicious dish is obviously a smart dude he just holds some really bad opinions about user interfaces. and, implicitly, beliefs about users. I hold differing beliefs than you about user interfaces, and also, even though you might not believe it, fairly differing beliefs from a lot of GNOME 3 designers. I won't uphold GNOME 3 as a paragon of UI design that gets everything right. I change its defaults, and I have a lot of gripes and opinions about things I disagree with, some of which have gone into month-long battles. I believe that GNOME has the strongest chance of the rest of the remaining DEs, and there's plenty of things, like client-side decorations, the new application model (conceptually and sandboxing-wise) that I feel was the correct choice to advance the platform beyond what it is right now. I think GNOME also has an extremely strong stack technology-wise and is in a lot of ways future-looking. At Red Hat I discovered that I love the graphics space very much, so I got involved in X11 and Wayland development fairly early on. I take pride in my work that I did, technologically, on developing lower-level components and fixing the rest of the stack to make GNOME a smoother experience all around. GNOME moved the needle in a lot of ways for modern Linux graphics, and I'm happy to see that continue.

I knew Suspicious Dish was kind of young so when he talked about Mandrake I was a bit confused because Mandrake was a thing when he was 6!
