Google Open Source Blog (44) permalink
By Tim Hockin and Aaron Durbin, Platforms Software TeamOne of the most difficult and tedious things we do here in the Platforms Team is figure out what is going wrong with a new piece of hardware. Generally that means we need to examine a bunch of hardware registers and see how the device is configured. If you've never had to do this, let us assure you - it isn't much fun, especially when you have ...- Karpuscul said: Google работает с железом ?! Хм... Однако...

Management guru Peter Drucker noted that companies attracting the best knowledge workers will "secure the single biggest factor for competitive advantage." We and other forward-looking companies put a lot of effort into hiring such people. What are we looking for?At the highest level, we are looking for non-routine problem-solving skills. We expect applicants to be able to solve routine problems as a matter of course. After all, that's what most education is concerned with.

on
Slashdot (3154) permalink
Jack Spine writes "The Linux Foundation has published a how-to document for developers who want to negotiate the hidden shoals of open source. According to both the Linux Foundation and the Open Source Consortium, developers can get frustrated with the processes in open source coding, especially for enterprise-class projects like Linux. 'A guide to the kernel development process' aims to encourage participation from new programmers by explaining what's involved. Some developers and businesses attempting to ...- John said: Very cool. Looks like a good introduction. I particularly liked that it included some information on code checking and patch review. Sometimes just knowing who to talk to and where to find them is enough, and this guide certainly covers that.

Dare Obasanjo aka Carnage4Life (176) permalink
There was an interesting presentation at OSCON 2008 by Evan Henshaw-Plath and Kellan Elliott-McCrea entitled Beyond REST? Building Data Services with XMPP PubSub. The presentation is embedded below. The core argument behind the presentation can be summarized by this tweet from Tim O'Reilly On monday friendfeed polled flickr nearly 3 million times for 45000 users, only 6K of whom were logged in.
