Why not be the change you wish to see, then? Fork it, and surely they will come.

That or Linus’ work is of high enough quality that people are willing to put up with his crass behavior.

Also, somewhat unrelated, but comparing Linus to Elon is a nonstarter. Elon has money, but contributes little more than ego past that. Linus, on the other hand, actually gets his hands dirty. I don’t care for his behavior, but I do respect someone who actually does the work.

You’re right he can be a bit crass without needing to be. The outcome of his methods is exemplary, though.

You say “occasional use”, I read “given time for dust to collect”.

Even without that it’s not about furries, they’re thinking of therians. Furries just think anthro animals look cute, not that they’re an animal in a human suit.

Lol that’s a wild concept. $5 for 300 searches… so now when I go down a rabbit hole I have to count my searches.

Also, that gives them perverse incentives. If they make searching just a little frustrating they can get more searches out of you = more money. That’s not right.

The last several lines are so insanely unhinged, completely untethered from reality lol.

Also, when this guy learns about X11 vs Wayland he’s doing to die of an aneurysm.

Absolutely. Computers are great at picking out patterns across enormous troves of data. Those trends and patterns can absolutely help guide policymaking decisions the same way it can help guide medical diagnostic decisions.
