Considering the he "despises being nice" because "that's just how he is", and can't express what he actually wants to say even though he was able to fucking create Linux, then I think he simply fulfills the cliché of the one-sided nerd: good with machines, bad with people, to the point of wanting people to be like machines. I can sympathize with that to a degree, but not really. Just because I share the sickness doesn't mean it's not a sickness.
- izietto 13y agoI think he succeeds to express what he actually wants to say, he just doesn't talk with your conscience, IMHO rightly: the emotions towards something is not a conscience matter, so it is worthless to communicate them to your conscience; it's better to talk with the part of your brain involved with emotions. About "despises being nice" this seem to me just a trait of an egocentric personality, which is fairly common in our individualist society between overachiever people (Steve Jobs is a classic example). I don't mean it is a pleasant behaviour, but frankly as citizen of a west country I'm used to it.
