Open source is often praised for producing versatile software, but here's something I haven't seen mentioned ANYWHERE:

Open source is the most accessible source of education for real world software engineering. It provides easy access to code that gets shipped to production and solves real world problems.

Without open source, learning how kernels or web browsers actually work would require a degree, a fat resume, good luck in the job market, and also whatever else corporations decide.

It's been a rainy few days. The sound of rain hitting the window pane gets on my nerves. Yeah I know I'm weird coz most people seem to enjoy that. Smell of rain? Bleah. And what's so romantic about walking in the rain all sticky and wet? Maybe my senses are all screwed up. But luckily I have my dependable noise cancelling headphones.
