I am sad that I do not have the ability to downvote this utter tripe. From the author's twitter a/c: > Linux story was a bit unusual for #MeToo, because the abusive conduct wasn’t necessarily directed at women – yet the climate of abuse and nastiness had the effect, critics say, of driving out women. It's not just unusual for #MeToo - it's fucking downright inappropriate to even attempt to tie it in with #MeToo. The good old "critics say". Who are these critics - do they have names or special knowledge that could inform us as to whether they're qualified to make these criticisms? Are they random people on twitter by any chance? The named girl in the article was retweeted by author & had this to say: > If you wanted to work in operating systems but left or never joined because of Linus Torvalds, please reply to this tweet or DM me. RTs for reach appreciated! who herself retweets some other random who tweeted(in relation to Linuses salary): > Agreed. There are two issues being conflated: > 1) Given Linus's behavior, he is not qualified to lead the project. > 2) The salary he is receiving is fair compensation for the lead of the Linux project (assuming the person in that role is qualified) Even as a liberal European, the current toxic nonsense being spouted by these people is most definitely well past the "jumping the shark" moment.
