gnzl@nc.gnzl.cltoProgramming@programming.dev•Linus Torvalds: Linux succeeded thanks to selfishness and trustEnglish

1 year agoI thought maybe the title had been misspelled and it was supposed to say “selflessness and trust” but nope, Linus goes into great detail about how being selfish helps open source projects. I agree with the points he’s making though, great interview. This bit is so relatable:
I’ll happily sit in front of the computer the whole day, and if the kids distract me when I’m in the middle of something, a certain amount of cursing might happen.
The local and remote port options sound exactly like something I’ve needed multiple times in the past, I’ll keep this saved for when it happens again. Great stuff!
