"lashes out" or actually just talks common sense
- bell-cot 1y agoYeah - but the phrase is both clicky, and a good warning for folks unfamiliar with Linus' communication style. Diplomacy and tender feelings aside - the CEO yelling "HELL, NO!" can prevent an enormous amount of wasted time and talk.

I agree the headline is a bit exaggerated, but it's not incorrect. I also don't think endianess is common sense. Maybe among experienced kernel developers it is, but even Linus had to Google to see what the argument was. I don't think Linus is common, inexperienced, or dumb
