pointing and saying “this is shit. Look at this shit”
Yeah you only get to do that if you’re Linus 😄
His point could be valid, if C was working fine and Rust didn’t fix it. But C isn’t working fine and Rust is the first actual solution we’ve ever had.
He’s just an old man saying we can’t have cars on the road because they’ll scare the horses.
He definitely improved it… but there’s still plenty of material for r/linusrants.
He may not directly call people names anymore but he’s still extremely rude and unprofessional. He would have been fired long ago from any company I work for, and I live in the UK where it’s practically impossible to get fired.
