  • Summary

    According to the video, open source software is not necessarily as important for servers and IT in the modern world as it was in the past. This is because software updates are now delivered electronically over the internet, making it less important to have access to the source code. Additionally, companies typically pay for service agreements with software vendors, which means that the vendor will fix bugs and update the software for them. Even if a company has access to the source code, they may not have the expertise to fix the software themselves.

    I believe this is a perfect example of what I believe is called the Dunning-Kruger effect. In the same way that I’m glad amateurs are given a platform, I rue the fact that amateurs are given a platform as a little bit of research would’ve prevented them making themselves look so stupid. “Servers don’t need open source” with 97% of the top 100 servers running Linux looks like an odd position to take. Maybe they’re trolling.





















  • I think you’re being ignorant. Sexuality is a spectrum and just because someone outwardly identifies as straight, doesn’t mean they are. According to your set-up, they would be excluded and that’s not right. As someone with lots of people around me in the LGBTQ+ community, I can tell you that the community is warm and welcoming.

    Now if you want to talk about straight girls that cosplay LGBTQ+ on nights out, that’s a whole different discussion and you’ll find the reaction very different to what you’re receiving.
