Is anyone else reminded of 3M by this? Also, Apple had Steve Jobs leave, company founder, then Jobs returned & Apple was swell. Similar situation. Maybe it's the grandpa in me but I feel like one gets a sense of that 'CEO feeling' at any company.. that is is why they're called the CEO.

I hate to say 'I told you so,' but, Geez, this is literally everything I hate about liberal arts majors.. A grad school dissertation on Medieval Printing Techniques of the 1400's?? My senior project was software work for a Fortune 500 STEM company that I interned for as a sophomore & this guy is selling Printing Techniques of the Middle Ages.. what is this world coming to??

Re:Ten Years of Kubuntu

Great essay on Kubuntu, Tslolkovsky! It is an impressive overview of your accomplishments, in context, and that's perfect. I've personally tried a few distros of Linux, originally developed by Linus Torvalds. My personal favorite is the one I use the most. Standard Ubuntu just does it for me. KDE is ok but Gentoo is just too lo-fi for me - I'm not interested in a product that is like living in a halfway house instead of a real house with a roof & doors & a working bathroom, if you get the point I'm trying to make here. I am aware that there are people out there who cannot lose their massive social anxiety problems & try to work on their computers. Red Hat Linux is apparently the one that's most like Windows & I've heard good reviews of it.

Google, the company, is really selling the new Chromebook (i have one). They're like, "Ok nerds come & watch this video our marketing department made of this product our engineering team built." Great, Google. No one is paying attention!!! There was a new one last year & the year before & it sold then
