I know the author probably didn't mean anything by it, but I dislike the implication that only a dude could bring ZFS to Linux.

- jacoblambda 10y agonot to be rude but what are you talking about? I don't see that anywhere in the post.
- Raphmedia 10y agoStop trying to push some bullshit agendas. "In the early 1960s, dude became prominent in surfer culture as a synonym of guy or fella. The female equivalent was "dudette" or "dudess," but these have both fallen into disuse, and "dude" is now also used as a unisex term." -Wikipedia I've yet to hear anyone use "dudette" or "dudess" while I see "dude" applied to females all the time.

- loco5niner 10y agoApparently, this is referring to this comment in the OP: > Awesome. Srsly. And if any of the people who worked to bring the joy of ZFS to Linux read this – dude, I owe you a beer. Nothing wrong with that comment I can see. By taking offense, you are doing your own cause a disservice, you person of unknown gender.
