  • Hopefully you only chmod’d your own systems. Early in my career, I worked on a project wherein we gave a contracting company root access to a computer they could use to test the software they were writing for us. One morning, they sent us a message saying they couldn’t log in. We looked at the computer and discovered it wouldn’t boot. Turned out someone on the remote team had chmod 777’d the entire filesystem. Of course we locked down their access after that.


  • The education system (universities, colleges, courses) uses the “modern” development stack.

    Hahahahahaha!

    Only a very few colleges and courses specializing in a very narrow field, such as embedded devices, can teach you the C language.

    snort BWAHAHAHAHA!

    the “dying C”

    [wheezing]

    And by doing this they are trying to hide the C language.

    [incredulous snort]

    And the community is kind

    [wistful sigh] I truly wonder what it would be like not to know anything about Linus Torvalds. I sometimes wish I didn’t know about Richard Stallman!

    And that it is unlikely that C will be able to replace anything in the near future.

    I’m sure you wrote this backwards.
