In another life, I delivered a package to Linus and he answered the door in a bathrobe at 1:30 in the afternoon, just got out of the shower. Nice guy.

Isn’t this the “woke communist” that runs his company in a shitty way? Overworks employees and stuff? I’m not familiar with the drama is just weird not seeing anything about that in the comments

Even though wrong Linus (Torvalds is the Linus who made Linux) I’m glad someone brought that up. Last time I saw LTT he was cozying up with nazis. Last time I heard about him he was being a PR-washing ultralib. He’s been beloved among reactionaries every step of the way.

Different Linus. This Linus made Linux, he’s not the one who does tech tips.

I already had a huge respect for him for being really pragmatic, but after this post my respect for him climbed a level above I thought wasn’t even possible.

And that’s without considering the guy basically made software that runs >99% of modern internet.
