- danielh 18y agoThere are some aspects that might be worth voting this article up. Like the one you noted, or the mere fact that even a genius like Linus gets frustrated about debugging. Still, I can't help suspecting that many voters wouldn't care if some John Doe had written this story.
- JesseAldridge 18y agoTrue. But the name Linus Torvalds helps the article pass through our "crap-filter". We invest more effort in looking for value because we have a reasonable assurance that value is there.
