- steveklabnik 12y agoI have met him in person many times and so if that's it, they also have a single person handling interface. :)
- masklinn 12y agoMight be multiplets. Or maybe wycats is a clonal colony, like Pando.
- koenigdavidmj 12y agoNote that nobody reads every post in linux-kernel. In fact, nobody who expects to have time left over to actually do any real kernel work will read even half. Except Alan Cox, but he's actually not human, but about a thousand gnomes working in under-ground caves in Swansea. None of the individual gnomes read all the postings either, they just work together really well. —Linus Torvalds (2000-05-02)
- techdragon 12y agoI love that quote.
- aikah 12y agoWhat separates TJ from a lot of us is that he isnt afraid to actually go and read some source code,no matter what the language is. That's what separates the good devs from the average ones.How many of us actually read the source of libs or frameworks we use everyday? not that many. But he also have a thing for simplicity,and that is a matter of taste.
