More quotes by Linus Torvalds
I like offending people, because I think people who get offended should be offended.
Linus Torvalds
I may make jokes about Microsoft at times, but at the same time, I think the Microsoft hatred is a disease.
Linus Torvalds
You won't get sued for anticompetitive behavior.
Linus Torvalds
I actually think that I'm a rather optimistic and happy person it's just that I'm not a very positive person, if you see the difference.
Linus Torvalds
Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships.
Linus Torvalds
People who are doing things for fun do things the right way by themselves.
Linus Torvalds
We all know Linux is great...it does infinite loops in 5 seconds.
Linus Torvalds
If you like using CVS, you should be in some kind of mental institution or somewhere else.
Linus Torvalds
I'm simply too content doing what I want to do to really have a very negative attitude towards MicroSoft. They make bad products - so what? I don't need to care, because I happily don't have to use them, and writing my own alternative has been a very gratifying experience in many ways.
Linus Torvalds
It just makes it even harder for people to even approach the (open source) side, when they then end up having to worry about public humiliation.
Linus Torvalds
Working in lock-step simply isn't a good idea. Never has been, never will be.
Linus Torvalds
I love making friends.... it's people I can't stand.
Linus Torvalds
Modern PCs are horrible. ACPI is a complete design disaster in every way. But we're kind of stuck with it. If any Intel people are listening to this and you had anything to do with ACPI, shoot yourself now, before you reproduce.
Linus Torvalds
Once you start thinking more about where you want to be than about making the best product, you're screwed.
Linus Torvalds
In many cases the user interface to a program is the most important part for a commercial company: whether the programs works correctly or not seems to be secondary.
Linus Torvalds
I seldom get self-righteous, and even when I am being impolite (almost always on purpose - there's an art to insulting people, too), I tend to try to not be too serious about it. And most of the time it means that I can take criticism constructively, and sometimes just change my opinion on the fly and laugh at myself over having turned on a dime.
Linus Torvalds
There are extremists in the free software world, but that's one major reason why I don't call what I do free software any more. I don't want to be associated with the people for whom it's about exclusion and hatred.
Linus Torvalds
So I decided that if the architecture is fundamentally sane enough, say it follows some basic rules like it supported paging , then I would be able to say, yes, Linux fundamentally supports that model.
Linus Torvalds
All operating systems sucks, but Linux just sucks less
Linus Torvalds
I used to be interested in Windows NT, but the more I see it, the more it looks like traditional Windows with a stabler kernel. I don't find anything technically interesting there.
