  • I don’t know, I think even in real life people get silly when discussing topics they have strong feelings about, and politics seems to be one of them fairly often.

    I saw an economic’s professor start an argument in a coffee shop about Bernie Sanders. And he legitimately said something about Sanders’s socialism leading to firing squads.

    Getting into an argument like that isn’t even worth it or possible to win.



  • As some of the article’s comments say, the answer is probably the simplest: IBM.

    IBM said they’d let Red Hat operate independently, but it was a matter of time before some of that corporate “culture” (aka stock-driven decisions) started showing through.

    Hopefully the employees themselves aren’t slowly sinking into the IBM workload. I think a lot of them intentionally left IBM for Red Hat specifically because of the ideological difference.
