The Linux Foundation Offers 50% Discounts On Training (linuxfoundation.org)

An anonymous reader writes: The non-profit association that sponsors Linus Torvalds' work on Linux also offers self-paced online training and certification programs. And now through December 22, they're available at a 50% discount. "Make learning Linux and other open source technologies your New Year's Resolution this holiday season," reads a special page at LinuxFoundation.org. There's training in Linux security, networking, and system administration, as well as software-defined networking and OpenStack administration. (Plus a course called "Fundamentals Of Professional Open Source Management," and two certification programs that can make you a Linux Foundation-certified engineer or system administrator.)
And if you order right now, they'll also give you a free mug with a penguin on it.

    They sponsors Linus's kernel development.

    Why exactly are we ragging on them?

      They won't put the good courses on kernel development on sale.

      Um, it says "any of our e-learning courses." You just apply the coupon code at checkout.

      I seriously don't understand all this hatred for the non-profit Linux Foundation that pays Linus Torvalds to keep working on Linux.

    What part of the word "non-profit" don't you understand?
