More quotes by Linus Torvalds
Before the commercial ventures, Linux tended to be rather hard to set up, because most of the developers were motivated mainly by their own interests.
Linus Torvalds
What I find most interesting is how people really have taken Linux and used it in ways and attributes and motivations that I never felt.
Linus Torvalds
People who are doing things for fun do things the right way by themselves.
Linus Torvalds
Real quality means making sure that people are proud of the code they write, that they're involved and taking it personally.
Linus Torvalds
You won't get sued for anticompetitive behavior.
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
I love making friends.... it's people I can't stand.
Linus Torvalds
I'd argue that everybody wants to do something that matters, and the fact that Linux has had a huge impact on the tech market and is used virtually everywhere is obviously very personally satisfying. I think programming is fun, and the community around the kernel is great, but a project has to be relevant too.
Linus Torvalds
Intelligence is the ability to avoid doing work, yet getting the work done.
Linus Torvalds
Eventually the revolutionaries become the established culture, and then what will they do
Linus Torvalds
Avoiding complexity reduces bugs.
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
I'm perfectly happy complaining, because it's cathartic, and I'm perfectly happy arguing with people on the Internet because arguing is my favourite pastime - not programming.
Linus Torvalds
I like offending people, because I think people who get offended should be offended.
Linus Torvalds
I am pragmatic. That which works, works, and theory can go screw itself. However, my pragmatism also extends to maintainability, which is why I also want it done well.
Linus Torvalds
I obviously think that freely available software can not only keep up with the evolution of commercial software, but often exceed what you can do commercially.
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
I really never wanted to do source control management at all and felt that it was just about the least interesting thing in the computing world .
Linus Torvalds
I do get my pizzas paid for by Linux indirectly.
Linus Torvalds
Non-technical questions sometimes don't have an answer at all.
