Recent events have had me thinking a lot more about which tools we will be allowed to use in the workplace.
It was difficult to undo the damage that using Windows for most of my life affected my perception of computers.
Using Linux has widened my perspective on technology in general and made it a lot more fun to explore low level and systems programming.
Do many of you get to use Linux tools at work? How would you feel about more small establishments and local shops using software that gives them more control?
I’d imagine payment software, and a whole slough of other services are now sold as SaaSes when historically they did not need to be digitized or have an unnecessary middle man.
Just a little Tuesday thought for discussion. Hope you all are doing well.
