The OP (and others) have right to opinions but I see bunch of projects having successfully received their grants https://floss.fund/projects/2025. OpenSSL and Krita being the prominent ones that I recognize.
Calling the fund dangerous and unethical when they personally have zero control over regulations seems over the top to me.
Similar thing happened to my model3 early on (late 2019) and I had a furious but futile conversation with service centre about how dangerous my situation was. They stonewaled me after “kernel panic, dont know why”.
The car had it’s own “blue screen of death” in the first lane, after a turn, on central expressway right next to their Santa Clara service center. ( https://goo.gl/maps/sPVNDNJZaR9zQ66c9)
Luckily there is signal right there so people were slowing down naturally but man the car turning into a brick and not even emergency blinkers (parking lights) working was shitty experience!
I’m fuming that someone paid a price for tesla’s similar failure.
Edit: I was on “auto pilot”
Has been smooth sailing with MBP 16” Intel (2019).
Really loving the extra real estate. Can not imagine going back to plain old 22-24” screens.
Edit: Primarily a backend+devops role. so refresh rate or pixels don't really matter. Being able to have multi tabs open on IntelliJ is real win for dev work. (Called split tab in jetbrains world)
So much this, the amount of people who refuse to believe this (even after a decent argument in favour) is infuriating.
He also has a decent newsletter and witty commentary, for all things AWS.
Why isn’t that information enough?
I have come to believe that over a period of time producers and consumers both will realise that the middleman cares more about it’s own cut over either of them.
Less cynical thoughts;
1. I don’t know if and what kind of controls/flexibility YouTube allows on demand side, but it could be a “foot meet gun” story. ie advertiser is new to platform and messed up targeting and/or is over-bidding.
2. Advertiser might think 1 cent CPM is worth it, no one else bothers to bid on your data (based on your description) - still kinda ties into cynical view.
They really made a difference in terms of inside temperature.
Also the ability to tilt windows and even doors (vertically) was an amazing feature.
I’d like to mention that I’m utterly out of my depth here, I dont even know what the field of study is called that tries to understand this phenomena.
Most companies start as latter either because of historical reasons. i.e they already had a dedicated systems/ops team or because a significant majority of engineers are not interested in doing cross functional/vertical product engineering.
I have experienced two such efforts. One where the transition had varying degrees of buy in from whole eng org and happened slowly but successfully, another org where developers kept (indirectly) refusing to own up their systems past build phase and engaged in unproductive turf wars.
As a development engineer nothing is sadder than seeing a fellow dev engineer not giving a damn about either larger picture (why our product exists/why our users's lives are going to be better because of the product) or about how's the system behaving outside of their little bubble of local machine and jenkins.
PS: I do acknowledge that different people have different motivations depending on what's going on in their personal live.

For someone who hasn’t experienced anything better than “agile”, I’d be really interested to know and understand your point of view.
1. No bullshit guide to Maths and Physics [1]
2. No bullshit guide to Linear Algebra [1]
3. A programmer’s introduction to mathematics [2]
I haven’t gone through the books completely but I’m halfway through the ‘no bullshit..’ books and I liked them based on how easy they were for me to approach.
May be they also fit your learning style as well? Hope this helps and happy learning.
