thats a long time to not learn from your mistakes
I wouldn't call Linux simple, just "dumb, but works."
Now Linus is whining about all the graphics stack being dumped into the kernel.
the kernel as "being one program" as rms describes
Linus doesnt whine he screams the fire of rage from deep inside his heart
the man is a REAL NIGGA
He rages against companies, but he whines with fellow developers.
rms seems like an excuse for himself, by comparison
but thats just personality. thats not code
Linus is just bubbled from ideologies because of the inertia of moving away from Linux.
this is hilarious
you know ive actually wanted to talk to someone about this stuff for awhile, but my only couple coding friends somewhat agree with me already
Linus thinks he's the hottest kernel developer there is, because everyone uses it.
yes
But the whole BitKeeper drama shows how little he cares about others.
i aks nobody their humility for their accomplishments
It's a sorry state of affairs when the main opposition we have to ultra-conservative views are those lunacy.
use the Middle Ground
its where most people are already
Yeah.
Linus' friend had a proprietary version control tool, BitKeeper, he offered a free license for the Linux kernel, with a condition that nobody should reverse engineer it.
well they use git now
The devs were pissed, so a parallel Subversion repository was maintained, but commits to it had to be patched back into the BitKeeper repo.
dude this article is straight philosophy
One dev decided to not download the BitKeeper client, so he just poked the server with telnet to reverse engineer the protocol from scratch.
No license violation, since he never agreed with any license.
spirit of free software my ass, letter of the law
oh sorry, you didnt send me this. wow
But as soon as that dev published a reverse-engineered client for BitKeeper, the BitKeeper author went apeshit and revoked the license he had given to the Linux project.
i'm sorry, do you know a better source for this controversy?
And Linus, in his immense retardation, got angry at his own community of developers.
He then shut down the kernel development for a month, and wrote his own version control tool.
sounds like a great idea
AFAIK, he never apologized for blaming the community for his friend's shit.
git is shit though.
its *obtuse*
I think to this day, it has one fucking command that nobody other than Linus himself, uses.
i use it everyday, but mostly as an UnFuckMe button
