What are they famous for then? High quality, trustworthy code?

It doesn't matter if you want to "tolerate" it if every time there's a filesystem thread there's stories about lost filesystem and unfixed bugs, and the rare times people try to report bugs or issues they go nowhere.

You're ranting about reality, and somehow I doubt you were ever a user of mine.

I've worked hard to establish an engineering community where no one has to be afraid to point out broken shit, including and especially in my code, and I wouldn't want your attitude anywhere near it.

Absolutely. Demonstrably much moreso than you over the past decade.

You have failed. Look at this conversation: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/fe51512baa18e1480ce997fc535813c...

Do you think Arnd, David, and Russell feel like they were rewarded for pointing out your broken shit? I doubt it. I certainly don't. You were so completely and obviously in the wrong there I have difficulty believing it was real.

I'm not replying to you again. Good luck :)

HAH

Not comparable to losing filesystems, sorry...
