I (and several others) got wind that we were about to be let go, so we basically didn't do shit for weeks on end (think Ron Livingston in The Office) until we had a talking to, then quit.

No one outside of upper upper upper management really saw him for the past year and a half of his life. A lot of people would joke around that he had "asshole cancer", and follow it up by saying that they didn't know where it was, but it only happens to assholes.

One big conspiracy of sorts that circulated was that Jobs died either some time before or some time after the official DOD, but the powers that be decided it'd help boost iPhone 4S sales to announce it within its launch frame.

>>56394503
Zero programming/coding experience outside of HTML/CSS and some basic Python. I didn't interact with programmers outside of some software UI/UX guys.

>>56394507
I can go either way. Skeuomorphisms were a wonderful way of showing off high-res displays, and it was always fun seeing what concepts could be translated digitally, but it got out of hand. Flat, vibrant design can look beautiful if done right, and is generally easy to work with, as you can have a single asset or object that can be scaled to any size without issue.

Spoiler alert: The next big UI trend is going to be a sense of depth and space. If you've ever seen the computers in the movie "Her", think like that.

How much do you think there are cliques?

Do you think you get in better position just by ass-kissing and being loud enough regardless of your actual skill level?

What do you think about the middle managers in general, do they actually know what they are doing or are they just there to fill the position?

Why you guys cheap out on cooling?

Hi, I was an iOS Firmware Engineer from 2008-2015. Were you there when all those people were fired over the segment overflow in the A4 loader?

GNOME dev here. Can't say I agree with "beats all other GUI efforts in all of computing" - I still think webOS beats us in usability, and if it weren't for how far it fell, I wouldn't mind doing a mobile version of the DE :-D I'm glad people like GNOME, though - it may seem organized on the outside, but internally it plays out more like a fan project or something.

More to the point, however, I feel there's a bit of truth to this post. There's no real reason to use Linux other than "you like it" - sure, there are good aspects to it, but when it comes to OSes, there's no reason to use one over the other. We promote FOSS development because we believe in the philosophies behind it; however, imo it shouldn't be a dealbreaker when talking about software. I got to meet RMS a few years back, and while I appreciate his enthusiasm, I don't agree with him on this point.

HOWEVER, if there is a reason to use Linux, it's the headerbar concept. If you're not familiar with this, its a combined titlebar and menubar that GNOME uses on most of its core apps. It saves space for the actual content of the app to use and forces devs to focus on the core important pieces of their application when designing an interface. It's been copied in so many other OSes, but I feel only Linux users get the true, primal headerbar experience.

There's a user on DeviantArt I follow who does nothing but headerbar concept art, and I can say with certainty it truly shows the power of this amazing technology and its impact on society as a whole. We can do a lot with headerbars, and if we use them correctly, they can do a lot for us. too.

Why, my disabled wife wouldn't be able to use the computer to post her fanart if it wasn't for the simplified design of the GNOME Web browser, Epiphany. She's always found Chrome and Firefox's interfaces to be too unyieldy to use as a onehanded woman.

I hope I've done some good here, and please try GNOME!

The headerbar should be hide-able though. I hate having it in the way.

All OS should look the same at a passing glance. That is, there should be no visible trace of the OS during normal usage.

OP got hit by some NDA
