Oh excuse me, I should bend over for him then! Because his achievements are so great, he must be immune to criticism!!!
> the enormous contribution to the world of a master craftsman could have been even more enormous
Hardly, it's about the contributions that don't exist from other people because of the insufferable shit-headedness of working with him. But that doesn't matter to you because we can't criticize him now can we? No, we must bend over because he is so much better than us!
- busterarm 8y agoWhere are Matthew Garrett and Sarah Sharp's Linux kernel forks? Anyone else I forgot? I mean at least when the NetBSD group ego-tripped and removed Theo, he had the decency to work on OpenBSD. People who really want to contribute will find a way to, always. Unless something else is more important to them than contributing.

- JackCh 8y agoNow you're being as profane as Linus.
- thereare5lights 8y agoAnd completely irrelevant since I'm not collaborating with any of you.
- JackCh 8y agoIs conversation not a limited form of collaboration? I've got to say, I find it really hard to take your outrage at a little mild profanity seriously if you so casually use it yourself during normal conversations. To be frank, I think you're just pretending to be offended Linus using profanity.
- robotresearcher 8y agoYour complaint is that Linus is an ass, and this is how you choose to express yourself in public. Huh.
- thereare5lights 8y agoYour inability to realize that the the context of my criticism is on his ability to collaborate and that that doesn't apply to how I express myself in public is laudable.
