>work environments
It’s not a “work environment”. You can’t report Linus to HR. If you have a problem with him, you can fork the kernel and convince others to follow you. Then you’ll have a mailing list where you can ban Linus for his style. Good luck!
- mynameisvlad 4y agoYes because if he were at any company, he’d have been fired. Decades ago. Just because it’s not an official “work environment” per your definition does not mean it isn’t hostile or intolerable were it actually one. But actually countering that point is a lot harder, isn’t it?
- krater23 4y agoOk, it's intolerable for you how he communicates on the Linux Kernel Mailing List. Are you anyway subscribed to the LKML? Are you kernel developer? Are you developer anyway? Who you are that you want to tell a community how they have to communicate? Why your opinion should matter for this community?
- throw827474737 4y ago> Yes because if he were at any company, he’d have been fired. Decades ago. That's a pretty intolerable outright hostile and exclusive judgement :(
- _dain_ 4y ago> Yes because if he were at any company, he’d have been fired. Decades ago. And then there would be no Linux kernel. So much for companies.
- aaaaaaaaaaab 4y ago>does not mean it isn’t hostile or intolerable were it actually one It feels hostile and intolerable to you. There are many people who find the risk-averse non-confrontational corpspeak intolerable.
