FTP doesn't seem to be reported for getting compromised.
How can one compromise a protocol which is insecure by design? There’s not really anything secure there which needs to be broken - the transactions are already out in the open.
I don't see how that is any more polite than before.
If you honestly can’t see the difference, you haven’t been paying attention.
There are many ways this differs... but it boils down to this: Linus’ words focused on the code, not the coder. He still got his point across regarding why it was a bad decision, and he let people know he expected people to not do this for their own little corners of the kernel.
I will admit that I have taken advantage of the fact that many fast food places make it easy to order online - I’ve done that many times (although I generally pick it up myself).
But I also like the social nature of restaurants. It’s fun to share a meal with friends, sitting around and laughing, watching people walking by outside, etc. I can’t imagine always “eating in” - that would be sad and boring.
However it does seem like it would really be a great gesture of goodwill, to give some large amount of money (say $10k) to the top 100 RedHat contributors, however they felt like defining it...
The top 100 Red Hat contributors may very well already be on Red Hat's payroll - being paid to work on the software they're contributing to.
I used to really be into building my own RPMs, tweaking existing ones, etc. It was quite a learning experience in many ways... one of which was to note just how often the names of Red Hat employees appear in the changelogs for many, many different software packages.
Seems a bit shady though that you put your stuff out for free that someone else can pick it up, package it and sell it on.
I am not a huge GPL supporter, but there are a couple things I'd like to point out.
- The stuff that's been packaged and sold by "someone else" can also, in turn, be repackaged and sold... or given away. The free CentOS distribution exists entirely because Red Hat Exists.
- Red Hat isn't just a middleman selling other people's work. Red Hat's employees work on - and contribute to - hundreds of different software packages. Red Hat is consistently one of the largest (and often THE largest) contributors of code to the Linux kernel, year after year.

1) At least in my state, just the fact you have a drivers license means you can get jury duty
2) Why are people so against jury duty? Yes, it's inconvenient but so what? We need more intelligent people willing to participate.
The reason users hate Epic is because Epic sucks - various functions break, randomly, all the bloody time.
Well, after they ate all those barrels of chalky candy hearts - that was probably the most likely outcome.
What’s the actual problem? Besides the fact that someone is way too addicted to anime?
VeraCrypt is just a maintained fork of the audited TrueCrypt code.
Yeah, it's not like there's *that* much of a performance penalty using your OS's encryption - or something like VeraCrypt.
But your neck will grow really long (not to mention hairy), and you’ll have a constant, irresistible urge to spit all the time.
When coffee is bad, I do take both cream and sugar. In a job interview I’m likely going to assume any proferred coffee is going to be bad, so...
From 2015?
I understand what you’re saying - and why - but I still ascribe to “never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence”.

Regardless of the presence of state actors wanting to interfere in our elections...
WHAT KIND OF MORON RUNS FTP ON AN ELECTIONS SERVER?
Ultimately Google would like to show you ads based on analysis of the available space in your home and what you do (or do not) own.
”Are DevOps, Agile, and Lean IT the Same Thing?”
Yes, they are all the same thing. They are buzzwords.
Yeah, I’d prefer permanent Daylight Saving over permanent standard time.
I don't see how that is any more polite than before.

Perhaps that says something regarding the future of the company.

What’d they do... sit at their desks with their hands folded on their laps?
They should just compile a giant, overpriced set of cookbooks. Then everyone is sure to forget they’re actually scumbags!
He's not getting any younger and he's still working in a car factory...
He started out as a bank manager. Poor guy is headed in the wrong direction, career-wise!
I kid, I kid...
when you work backwards from your conclusion.
Seems to me both of them are guilty of that.

Man, I'm glad I happened to be sitting down before I read that shocking headline.
