Bullseye for Linus. Not really surprising given his pedigree.
The reaction here is a surprise however. Maybe it just took the right person to state it eloquently, or maybe the worst-of-the-worst on Lemmy haven't read the article yet. I'm curious to see the overall reaction to this by the most incendiary of individuals; if they bother responding at all.
Meh, I'm not a fan of his stance, it's the most centrist "I'm not taking any sides, but" nonsense ever. Also don't like how he calls it "some kind of “social warrior” project", what is this - 2014? Grow a pair and have an actual opinion - you couldn't care less about the greater implications of slop machines being used for "good reasons", because it helps you advance your codebase. Not like we can do anything about it, "fork it" my ass lol, we are not about to have 2 Linux kernels for 200 Linux distros during the time when MS is pulling their slop machine dance moves as well.
