Re: Working for Linux/Debian



Sorry for late response Jonas but that does make sense. I’m just trying to find the path to a career and it is tricky and unfortunately it seems slow and takes a while to gain experience. I might consider doing something like a coding bootcamp and then seeing if I can get a degree or maybe whatever other job I can get along the way to learn the basics. I hear there are a lot of different low cost online courses nowadays so I may consider looking into that as well. 

That is interesting Agata. I guess I was looking for one particular path that would quickly get me a job, knowledge, and experience, but I guess it’s a journey and you learn slowly. That makes sense. I’ll see if I can figure out a way to try my hand at some projects and see if I can design something. 

Jonas, that is very interesting to hear your story. I grew up and live in the states but I’ve been to Denmark and Norway. Denmark seems quite expensive and I had assumed that the average salary was quite high. That is interesting to know. With regard to package maintenance, that seems quite interesting. Was Debian mostly made by software engineers and other computer professionals who volunteered to design it? 

Agatha with regard to Red Pill and anti-feminism and all, I wasn’t sure what your tone was so I was hesitant to respond at first. But I think that it is true. There is this idea of awakening which can often be exploited by toxicity. But the concept of self improvement and seeing beyond the everyday limitations is important and something that everyone should try and do in order to self-actualize. We do our best. But any form of hate is not good for anyone.

Thanks Peter,

I imagined and hoped he was referring to the Matrix.

But in my life I have suffered from racism, so I preferred to share the meaning assigned to that term. That's all.


Red pill refers to (becoming enlightened to) the truth about reality, especially a truth that is difficult to accept or exposes disillusions.

Online, red pill is especially used among anti-feminist and white supremacist groups to refer to "waking up" to the truth that women and liberal politics are oppressing men and white people.
