        I love this part:

        the next time I see you copying VFS functions (or any other core functions) without udnerstanding what the f*ck they do, and why they do it, I’m going to put you in my spam-filter for a week.

        Like after all that he will just block him for a week 🤣 I would block them for a year minimum or forever…

          I was just about to quote that same bit. We gotta report a murder.

        His response to Linus was interesting to read.

        Oh and especially this comment further down in the conversation…

        As it is, I feel like I have to waste my time checking all your patches, and I’m saying “it’s not worth it”.

        I’m basically done with this. I never said I was a VFS guy and I learned a lot doing this. I had really nobody to look at my code even though most of it went to the fsdevel list. Nobody said I was doing it wrong.

        Sorry to have wasted your time

          Sheesh. Seeing just how long he goes on tantruming is kinda surprising 😳 seems like the guy was just trying to contribute… ya don’t have you shit in mouth, right? Jesus

            Thank you for validating my feelings here. I don’t know why we idolize this kind of behavior, but berating someone on a mailing list should not be acceptable, much less desirable.

              For sure! Like I think criticism should be welcomed from a constructive standpoint, but there were some outright personal attacks in there! After reading the wiki page for Linus a coupla days ago my perspective is starting to shift a bit towards him 😅 woof

                I live by the “there are no heroes” philosophy myself. You can like some of what a person does while admitting that they are still flawed like the rest of us.

                Way too much of the tech industry culture is rooted in idol worship.
