It seems that there had been no formal experiments that really prove/disprove the theory that contributions and pull requests on Github are judged according to sex/race that that kind of factors. It's a bit strange considering how easy it would be to do such an experiment. Decades ago formal experiments that proved the felt superiority of white ppl paved the way for civil rights, and it would be nice if we can have some formal, scientific support today as well. Personally, I think that discrimination is possible in some corporate Github projects. However, it is incredibly unlikely in something as hard core as Linux. Generally speaking, the more hard-core and high level you get, the less politically opinionated ppl are, so it really is hardly imaginable that Linux contributors, being devoted developers, would really discriminate, especially when many contributors are simply known by an email address, and sex/race isn't even disclosed.

Probably will be a PR disaster for them, and sales may take a hit. It's true that there are not longer many alternatives, and objectively they're still doing well, but the fact that they were bragging about it all the time and suddenly reversed their decision will make people angry enough to instinctively avoid them. If they really had to do it, a soft landing and an apology would be necessary given their niche positioning.

Well Google can just strike back by soft-blocking edge from Youtube/G suite. It's honestly a doomed effort, and Edge is not going anywhere.

A few months ago I used a USB drive to install Ubuntu, and later wanted to revert the drive to it normal state again. Now the drive registers normally on both Windows and Ubuntu, while in Mac the drive mounts but the contents used to boot Ubuntu are displayed, while the actual files stored on the drive are not visible in any way. What I did: Used diskpart in Windows 10 to delete all partitions in the drive Created a primary partition Formatted that partition into FAT32 using a full format (not quick format) Any ideas on how to fix the issue? BTW the drive is a Kingston 100 G3, 16G Thanks!
