Is this submission a deliberate attempt to make Linus look bad? The title is not at all what his comment amounts to; it could be removed from comment post without changing the meaning. I don't doubt you can find a multitude of quotes of Linus in support of various, official or pragmatic, standards. He was just polemizing.
- statictype 16y agoIt wasn't an attempt to make him look bad. I think many/most people here would agree with the sentiment about standards vs actual usage. And that line was delivered with classic Linus style - blunt and with the subtlety of a chainsaw. That's why I chose it for the title.
