Hi everybody! I was wondering what is your experience with running Linux in companies that have ISO/SOC2/etc... certifications or are simply strict when it comes to security. Are you permitted to run Linux natively on your work laptops or maybe in a VM? O maybe is a cloud-based machine your only o...Read more

Could someone tell me companies in India doing deep Linux Kernel and also device driver development and also contributing to Open Source? How can I get into such companies?

Just had to replace my Linux laptop that my old company (which got acquired). The new one has Windows, and I've seen on Slack our head of security say that Linux is "not supported" and IT's asset management software or whatever won't run on Linux. I know a couple of colleagues just wiped windows and...Read more
If redhat or some other company spends little energy on providing tech support for a distro targeted for consumer laptops, there is a huge opportunity to compete with Windows and Mac os. I used mac but I think they made it too simple to use for advanced users. I actually find it irritating to use.
Only reason I see is iOS / apple products dev and apps but vast majority of software engineers don't even need that.
Please suggest me

Why do companies with O365 subscription, invest in Slack when Teams is available for free with O365. I heard Teams is also launching for linux which will boost its market share. Does Teams have good integrations like Slack. In long run is it going to be bad for Slack Stock ?

Meta engg. employees: do you use Windows or Linux laptops provided by the company? Asking because the onboarding flow has only a MacBook to choose from. I'm more comfortable with Windows (shortcuts, window management), and with WSL I don't think Unix compatibility will be an issue. I'm okay with L...Read more
Lazy Sunday poll! What OS do you use for coding at your company? Why? Is windows still used? Is linux taking over and replacing Mac? Why do you like using your OS?
Curious about how well tech companies here support running Linux on work laptops. By "native" here I mean wiping the drive and booting straight into a Linux distro of your choice, no OS X/Windows present.
Interested in knowing what the majority of the tech community uses. If you use Linux, please comment the name of the company too Edit TC: 210k YOE: 3
