Note Chet Ramey is the other principal behind Bash. I went to school with him and he stayed and still works there :) https://www.amazon.com/Bash-Reference-Manu

  Was surprised to not see Chet's name come up. When we were shipping WSL, I got the team in touch with Chet to give WSL a test run, with no major surprises (a couple edge case bugs, IIRC). I'm bummed I never met him in person while at Case, but always a fun little factoid that came in handy the one time.

    Unrelated to the article, but WSL is a true gem :) I spend many an evening writing Rust on my Ubuntu WSL setup, and no reboots necessary in the morning (Windows-intensive job). Thank you for your work on it.

    The scope of the interview was Brian, and bash only came up rather than being the focus of of the interview. However it makes sense that bash was used as a hook for audiences like the HN crowd. In other words I don’t think Ramey was being dissed in this case.
