- sbuk 13y agoNo. To err is human. In the grand scheme of things, it's a PR fuck up; nothing more. I doubt it affects you directly enough as a Gentoo user to have such a strong reaction anyway, but if it make you feel superior, then all power to you.

This is why you're a negligent jackass if you don't plan for errors and build multiple systems to prevent and detect them, at least until computers start programming themselves for us.
