lol, is that what you took away from that? He burnt himself out, took it out on his employees, and his audience.
In what way is he looking like a victim here?
The reason you “git blame”

It’s clear Linus has come to the conclusion he’s in way over his head. A small channel to a full blown media/tech company is a whole different ball game.
Coming up to the new CEO announcement, you could tell Linus was burning out. He seemed tired, quick to anger, and just generally in a bad mood.
That shit rolls down hill. Pushing for more videos on a tight schedule and burning everyone else out with him has led to the sloppiness.
As for Madison, I believe her. The company clearly has managers who have no business managing and simply got those positions via having tenure as the company grew.
Culture rots when there is no accountability, and when you have a burned out, grouchy CEO trying to do too much, too fast.
So what will matter now is what they do about it. Linus hiring a CEO is a good first step. I feel LMG has always been remarkably transparent and they aren’t pretending Madison’s story didn’t happen.
So if there is accountability for what happened to Madison (as in the people who totally did not do their jobs should be likely fired) and if proper training and processes are in place to make sure it doesn’t happen again, then at the end of the day, they’re doing what they can when shitty stuff like this happens.
Ideally it never happens. But if it does, do what you can to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Say what you want about the LMS folks, they’ve always been open. Linus’ heart is almost always in the right place. He wants to build an ethical and transparent company. He is a huge tech nerd and that’s what makes LTT so entertaining.
If it continues to degrade, yeah, I’m going to pass on further supporting them. But until they prove they can’t or won’t act in good faith, I believe them
Blockchain? Oh, hah, no no… none of us were ever hyping up a tech we didn’t understand as the solution to literally any problem.
Say, have you heard about AI? It’s a revolutionary technology that’s the solution to any problem!
Yeah, it’s a lot to pay for a keyboard that might not work out for you. That’s why I suggest the Logitech.
I’d prefer one without the numpad, personally like the old Microsoft Sculpt, but for some reason MS refuses to update that keyboard to a more modern, lower latency wireless tech.
I’m currently flirting with some of the mechanical options like the Moonlander, but haven’t yet pulled the trigger on that one.
As for the mouse, seriously the vertical mouse made a HUGE difference for me. More than the keyboard honestly.
Ergo keyboard and vertical mouse.
I’m currently using the Logitech K860 and the Logitech MX Vertical. Easy rec - cost effective, easy to get comfortable with as opposed to the more intense/expensive options.
Made a huge difference for me.
On the off chance you’re actually serious.
The thing I was pointing out is that you have a union. Unions are actively and aggressively busted by US companies. Almost every US state has “at-will” employment laws that mean you can be laid off at any time for pretty much any reason at the drop of a hat.
All of a sudden that 400K or whatever you were expecting to make this year turned into $0. You no longer have health insurance. Those RSUs you had vesting this year are gone (and those RSUs made up a big chunk of your compensation - that’s how people get into the 300-400K+ a year numbers).
The highs can be high, but the lows are very low.
Whoa. It’s like I’m seeing clearly for the first time in my life. You’ve opened my eyes and I will now immediately stop enjoying things because you, for some reason, feel so weirdly insecure about your own tastes that you felt the need to write, like, 25 paragraphs (that I absolutely did not read) seeking validation from internet strangers.
Really though. What was the goal here?
…according to my union statistics…
I mean… you’ve got to be trolling at this point. No one is this clueless.
I feel like we’re splitting hairs here. MIT is an extremely permissible license. The fact someone could take this and make a closed source fork doesn’t affect the existence or openness of the MIT licensed releases

The FUD and misinformation on here about Bluesky an AT is wild
Bluesky is still in beta. It’s intentionally not open to the general public because federation hasn’t yet been opened up and they only have one instance running.
The nice thing about Bluesky’s architecture (over ActivityPub) is the fact your content and identity is portable. So you can move over to a different instance as they start to come online.
I think the important takeaway from articles like this is the fundamental misunderstanding of decentralized social protocols. It shouldn’t be on one central authority how things are moderated globally. These kinds of articles kind of prove the point.
Plus it has a large library of great games that can be found cheap/used. Easily worth $100
Most of what you’d be playing on PS5 are PS4 games anyway
Buy the cheapest MacBook model you can find with an M-series chip and as much RAM as you can stomach the cost for.
I’d say 8gb is barrrrre minimum for doing app development. You’ll want 16gb.
Listen, I’m the last person you’d expect to recommend a Mac. I am an Android guy. No other Apple products in my place.
…but I’ve owned every top end model from pretty much every relevant PC manufacturer just trying to find something as reliable, hassle free, and well built as my work Mac and it just doesn’t exist.
The MacBooks are just in a whole other class. The battery life, the standby time, the speed of those M1/2 chips, runs cool and quiet.
I’m neutral on MacOS. It tends to stay out of my way. I don’t use any of the Apple apps. It is usually stable as hell. My work MBP currently has an up time of 68 days without a reboot, and the only reason it rebooted last time was for security patches.
Build quality is unmatched, screen is great, trackpad is still a generation ahead of anything else, keyboard is great.
I accept my fate, Fediverse. Roast away
