    Torvalds is a true genius

    Linux is great but Torvalds is a shit. Didn’t he once say that one of the developers should be retroactively aborted.

      Afaik he can’t really help it, pretty sure he feels emotion intensely and speaks his mind about it

      he has said a lot of things to get his point across. when you are dealing with people that speak multiple languages via mailing list, sometimes it takes a little hyperbole.

      my complaint about him is how little he cares about security. great lead dev in so many ways except that aspect
