Gemini version available ♊︎InteLeaks – Part XIII: GNU/Linux Documentation From People Who Never Even Use GNU/Linux
Summary: Inside Intel there’s a whole bunch of embarrassing secrets about the Developer/Development eXperience (“DX”) team; no wonder documentation efforts have been lacking and far too much time wasted putting such documentation together
THIS is the thirteenth part of at least half a dozen parts (see our index in the relevant wiki page). It deals with inside affairs at Intel and it sheds light on a situation so grim that we’ll need documents to properly expose it. We’ll get to that later in the series.
“Intel worked extra hard to squash voices and restrict dissemination of such material, knowing that it’s likely true/correct/accurate but rather embarrassing to Intel.”Today’s video, unscripted as usual, deals with the sorts of useless feedback developers at Intel receive from the “DX” team — basically a bunch of “low-tech” or non-tech people who assess documentation with inadequate proprietary software tools and a complete misunderstanding of what developers need and want. Intel worked extra hard to squash voices and restrict dissemination of such material, knowing that it’s likely true/correct/accurate but rather embarrassing to Intel. █
