- prepend 3y agoI actually like that there are people out there like the dude/RMS. I don’t necessarily want to emulate him or hire people like him, but I’m glad he’s here and grateful for what he’s done. I think that if you try to grind down the rough parts of people like RMS, you lose the genius. So I take people for a whole given that their net benefit is enough and they don’t have some catastrophic flaw.
